I feel like Apple is running out of ideas with the iPhone which makes sense since it's a very mature product. This seems like a gimmick to me. 

I mean, you've been a negative troll on this forum for a very long time, but I'd love to see you list additional features and improvements that are exciting, feasible, and would benefit the majority of iPhone users, since everything is allegedly a "gimmick" to you, and Apple is "out of ideas". No seriously, very curious about that. Because to me, taking one of the most commonly used and important features of the device (taking photos), and making that interaction more robust, flexible, powerful, funner, and easier to use, is the literal opposite of a "gimmick". 

Love how trolls and scam artists like Epic and Spotify CEOs are basically dictating EU's actions irt Apple. They just fucking whine, and EU takes action. It's absolutely absurd. Apple has taken MASSIVE actions and made deep, immense changes in in its software, spent billions of dollars in order to offset this with additional security requirements, in order to accommodate everything the EU demanded, and its still not enough. What a corrupt institution.

That’s no bug. Someone’s getting fired. for good reason. 

Nearly equivalent to posting up a hoot of James early ray when Martin Luther king’s name is typed in if that were a fresh event. 

What an utterly fucked up analogy, devoid of all merit. How do people like you come up with this shit? 

Let me guess, the words "Free Palestine" get you shaking in fear and rage too, and you see that as a genocidal statement, right? Because, the right and moral thing to do, is to keep millions of people under a brutal siege, walled in, while controlling their land, air, and see, without a shred of autonomy, and bombing at will, until the end of time. That's "peace" to you. 

You must live in a world where Israel hasn't literally flattened Gaza and slaughtered 14,000+ children and starved the rest. Yep, the sheer horror of the Palestinian flag.

One hour after this was posted, I tried it and no flag came up!  Apple must have fixed it, thankfully!

Thankfully? Were you shaking in fear and rage at seeing a Palestinian flag? Why are you so thankful? Who did this hurt, beyond the fake and predictable outrage and insane attacks of "anti-semitism" which these days seem to cover literally anything that extremist Israeli shills and propagandists disagree with? How often do you type "Jerusalem"? God forbid you see a flag which acknowledges the existence of a population which has been brutalized, occupied, besieged, and massacred for decades. Don't worry, you'll survive the tiny digital flag. Type in Israel or Tel Aviv if you're yearning for an Israeli flag. It will be ok.

They already have customers on their side, you think all Apple customers were ignorant about the devices they bought or that they lied in those surveys that consistently put Apple at the top of customer service rankings? The EU is ignoring all of them by kowtowing to greedy, whiny corporate bitches like Epic and Spotify. The world is truly upside down on this.

Funny how one of the highest vaulted companies in the world can be the victim here. I'm pretty sure Apple didn't get a high ranking by making the use of Apps impossible. 

Why can't they be the victim? Is victimhood depending solely on money? If a rich person gets murdered by a poor person, are they not victims? 

Tim Sweeney is worth almost 10 billion dollars. More than Apple's CEO, and more than any Apple employee. Stop pretending they're some kind of underdog. Epic blatantly broke Apple's ToS, ran a massive, cynical PR campaign against them including a 1984 rippodd ad meant to weaponize their 14 yr old Fortnite users, sued them, and shit on them every single day. It's WELL within Apple's rights to permanently revoke Epic's developer account based on their knowing and blatant violations of the terms of service. It's not a human fucking right to develop for iOS. It's a privilege.
