They do realize that the cost they pay is nowhere near  the cost they bill their customers? If that were the case I would say don’t include it. Now the wealthiest company in the world can’t afford to include their own charger? Come on!

@chasm Congrats on your 2,000rh post! And a well reasoned one at that! While I am not a big fan of much of our US foreign policy, I am really supportive of a much stronger political response to China.

Sinofsky holds the distinction having one of the biggest demo fails in Microsoft history. I still wince when I think of it.

Some people have the ability to move past their failures. Funny that while he can move past some demo failure, you still can’t! Even Apple has had some epic failures. If they were still wincing about it nothing would get done! Get over yourself!

this CCP spyware should be pulled off from app store completely!

Ahhh!   Here come the right wing crazies spouting #ChinaHate -- and trying to distract from gross failures and corruption here in the U.S.

They're so predictable....  And pitiful

Where is the China Hate? Any app that steals data from people’s phones should be stopped. Privacy is one area that Apple excels at and as has been pointed out, this could allow the theft of banking details, passwords, etc. And it should be checked on every update as someone else pointed out. You just seem to be looking for some sort of excuse to attack someone as being racist. 

Yay, Dan jumps to the most extreme POV as usual. Instead of a rational debate we get this? The idea is not about free. It is about fairness and right now Apple is losing this argument.
