The EU is an extortion racket. Change my mind. 

The US is a violent force destabilising peace across the world to suit its own ends. Change my mind.

Hopefully that won’t effect us here in England
Thank god for Brexit.

I hope England isn’t grouped with “Europe” anyway. British tech people need to lobby Apple to make sure this is understood. 

Too late, by several hundred if not a thousand years!

England is part of the UK … which is in Europe. We are very regrettably no longer in the EU but of course still have to abide by their rules to sell to them even though, unlike prior to 2016 when we were actually involved in drafting them.

Lobbying Apple? Apple, being a smart global company, are well aware we are not in the EU which is why the multiple browser choices in 17.5 and the like never appeared for me during my OS updates.

Fantastic news. Anything Apple can do to screw the EU is fine by me. At least we’ll get all the features in the UK. 

Oh dear.

Yep, all the EU features like a single market, customs union, free movement, no roaming charges, being part of multiple cross-country organisations and initiatives. No, wait. We lost all those, and more, when we left. Never mind though ‘cos if Apple can stick it to the EU then who cares?

That's what they get for telling an American company what to do...

How utterly dare anybody tell an American company what to do. The very idea.

“Hugely longer” - is this how journalism is done today? Yuk.
