  • Netflix to end password sharing in early 2023

    So I cannot use my account in my office or when I travel? If they are going to base it on home IP? How stupid is this?

  • Apple and big tech lobbying fends off U.S. legislative efforts

    The bills were stupid and was backed by many Europeans companies and Chinese companies. Apple should not be included with Meta and old Twitter . Those companies are  basically  an arm of one political party as we have seen with what Musk has released .

    Apple being able to control its own App Store has to do with that how? Stupid bull by stupid politicians

  • Foxconn forcing sick workers to stay on iPhone production lines

    Who is this ‘Rest of World’ activist group? I’m not saying this is made up but these types of groups do tend to exaggerate claims made by workers, just like union organizers do. The truth usually lies somewhere in the middle. We do know that the dictator Xi Jinping went from zero-covid to don’t-give-a-shit seemingly overnight. 

    In either event brace yourselves for the usual anti-Apple drivel to follow an article like this one. And remember this article when you buy that gadget for your kid made in a factory just down the road from Foxconn. It’s not only Apple you know. It’s everybody who manufactures in China.
    They aren't an activist group. https://restofworld.org/

    They're based in New York and are a tech news site.

    You can even read their standards page: https://restofworld.org/about/ethics-editorial-policies/

    Lol it’s obviously a hyper anti corporate outfit. Do you really think Foxconn will be forcing anyone to work in the line after what happened 2 weeks ago? Sick from what? Hang nail? Hair split end?

    No named sources, no corroborating sources, completely just made up one sided story

  • Foxconn forcing sick workers to stay on iPhone production lines

    There are two implicitly divergent thoughts on how to fight the spread of covid. On the ultra left the thought is to prevent the deaths, the zero covid policy is the most extreme that it tries to completely eliminate the spread brutally. On the ultra right the thought is to let the covid spread unrestricted until a herd immunity is achieved. This thought is based on the acknowledge that the death rate of Omicron is very low except maybe the elderly or people with underlying health problems. And the is Darwinism. 
    Good post and you are right essentially. I would add your “ultra right” way of herd immunity has proven to be the better solution and it’s essentially how humans has survived throughout the history of species . So it’s not a new thought or “out there”

    however, this idea you can close everything and hide the Virus away is frankly stupid beyond belief.

  • Foxconn forcing sick workers to stay on iPhone production lines

    According to this same activist group, some Foxconn workers also saw martians working next to them and another group also said Foxconn asked them to work with split ends on their hair!

    Some people would believe anything…

    where is Apple insiders editorial staff,? Did they get this groups back ground before printing? Have some standards please!
