  • US fights Canada over new tech tax that could cost Apple billions

    SigsgaardSigsgaard
    Taxes needs to be payed where the money is earned, not to be dodged by paying where it is cheapest. Multinationals needs to be treated like you and me - if I try to dodge paying taxes by moving my money to a tax shelter, I will end up paying very high fines and/or going to jail.

  • EU antitrust chief & Apple foe Margrethe Vestager out after 10 years

    SigsgaardSigsgaard
    I hope that the commisioner who takes over from  Margrethe Vestager, is just as tuff, or even tuffer, multinationals needs to be kept on a short leash. I don't like Vestager's political positions and vould never vote for her or her party here in Denmark, but I agree wholeheartedly in that multinationals have to pay taxes where they earn the money, just like you and me, not where their greed lets them get away cheapest, like the deal between Ireland (which I blame as much as Apple) and Apple.
    I positively hate "the opening up" of iOS/iPad OS - if people want an "open" system, they can buy Android and be as unsecure ("open") as they like.

  • Security flaws in Microsoft Mac apps could let attackers spy on users

    SigsgaardSigsgaard
    My Macs have been Microsoft, Adobe and Google (software) free zones for at least 10 years, and my life has been all the better for it :) 
    I must admit though, that I recently have installed Google Maps on my iPhone and iPad as my car runs Android Automotive and uses Google Maps for navigation, and it is nice to be able to plan trips on the phone or iPad and just send it to the car.

  • Does Apple's platform need to be opened up?

    SigsgaardSigsgaard
    No - nobody forces anybody to buy Apple products!

    As is always the case such as buying using iOS over Android, iPhone users also have a choice of just sticking with the App Store or purchasing from a third party store.  I’ll stick with the App Store, but those who purchase from third party stores will be aware of the potential risk and if are victims of those choices, won’t be able to come back to Apple and complain.  Choice is good. Just don’t choose poorly ;)
    I do think that you are mistaken about users being aware of the potential risks by using 3rd party app stores and sideloading. I do think that Apple will catch a lot of flak when people are scammed by the forementioned, like they did when (not particularly intelligent) parents entered credit card information into their children's phones with freemium games and tousands of €/$/£ were drawn, and of course Apple were blamed.
