  • 'Verifiably untrustworthy' Epic Games iOS app store plans in EU killed by Apple

    If the iOS platform is to maintain integrity, yes. Epic has a solid history of bad credit. If the EU's intent is to strip Apple of all control of its own platform and to force them to let thieves and child predators set up shop there, then it may come to a point where Apple would be better off withdrawing from that market, and EU can make its own phones. 
    You’re a brainwashed zombie.
    Ditto, buddy. Ditto. This is the way the world works.

    AppleZulu made a relevant point. People and companies with a history of breaking contracts and other malfeasance should be penalized. Far too often high net worth individuals and critical businesses get to skirt this. Sweeney and Epic have earned the extra scrutiny and need for contractual reassurances to use the IP that belongs to others (and not to the purchaser of a finished product).

    I shouldn’t have to spell that out. But your ad hominem made it kind of necessary.
    And Apple isn’t required to let Epic have their own store. They just have to let SOME company do it to comply. SetApp is supposedly planning on doing this so if they are allowed to open one then that’s all Apple needs to do. 


    Apple still have every right to keep Epic out based on past behavior and for the protection of their users should absolutely do so. Sweeney COULD have taken Apple to court and won without trying to circumvent the App Store policies but didn’t, now he will pay the price for the deception.

  • EufyCam 2C review: Great outdoor HomeKit camera that needs a partner

    Comparing this with the TP-Link C120 is wrong - the C120 doesn't have any HomeKit support, and I've not seen even a hint that it may come ever.

    Also weird timing for this review.  I've used Eufy 2C's for a few years already.  

    They obviously wear out being in the weather and mine have all started to die.  Eufy's newer cameras just do not support HomeKit at all, so it doesn't seem sensible to me to be investing in these again.  

    I'd prefer higher resolution than 1080p though I'm not sure HSV supports more than this.

    Where are the newer HomeKit Secure Video cameras - particularly for outdoor?  Crickets.

    They aren’t. They are comparing it to the Eufycam Indoor Cam C120 which does support HomeKit and HSV.
