Electronics shop owner busted after selling hundreds of counterfeit Apple products

Essex County's enforcement program receives federal backing through the DOJ's Bureau of Justice Assistance. It's part of a national initiative to fund local prosecution of intellectual property crimes.
I wonder how long that federal backing will last. -
OpenCore and Hackintosh are sadly dead after Apple ends Intel Mac support
I remember when Windows was panned for supporting legacy OSs while Apple would drop support for OSs "of an age". Regardless of who is or isn't surprised, I have no dog in this fight and see this as a natural step for Apple. Maybe it will help with fewer bugs to squash with the release of new upgrades and updates. -
Apple shareholders sue over Siri delays and massive losses

As for his legacy we need to split CEO from COO. He was outstanding as COO.Which Tim Cook has nothing to do with and has no control of.The challenge is that Trump is starting a side hustle selling cell phones and cellular service. This means we may be seeing carefully constructed tariffs that apply to all phones except for his. This means that a payoff from Apple would need to be large enough to compensate for the loss of Trump's cell phone revenue.
Neither Cook nor anyone else can know what he's going to do. Sure they can throw money at him and maybe get some "consideration". That's not control, not of the convicted felon who rose to the position of POTUS. That's submission. -
Apple shareholders sue over Siri delays and massive losses
Siri is in need of Sirious improvement and has been for a long time. But basing a lawsuit on what is inferred but not contractually promised is absurd.
Are these actually the proverbial "ambulance chaser" category of lawyers, with adverts of "Have you been..." citing any number and category of wrongs perpetrated by companies? Or are they just sought out by indignant customers who perceive themselves as "wronged". Ok, maybe taking this case and others with no basis puts the latter into the former category.
So are these suits taken on a contingency basis? Not a lawyer or playing one online, I'd like to see someone who initiates a frivolous lawsuit suffer some real cost, even if the courts don't do it. Obviously lawyers are happy to take a case on contingency if they feel confident of a win and a 30% + payday. We want to see legitimate lawsuits brought and won. -
How to train smarter with Workout Buddy in iOS 26 & watchOS 26

Most of the time I have to be aware of my surroundings before looking at the Watch. I have to stop or wait until I stop to view it. Hearing it in real time literally without breaking stride seems handy. Can I listen to music and have Breaking Info! interrupt? I'd rather not have to choose one or the other.
