@snowdusk_ Apple vs Google on privacy: a tale of absolute competitive advantage
https://2018.ar.al/notes/apple-vs-google-on-privacy-a-tale-of-absolute-competitive-advantage/
TL;DR Apple willingly giving up its absolute competitive advantage in privacy over Google would be as daft as Samson shaving his head every morning.
That said, the long term alternatives are p2p, e2e-encrypted, and free stack (software, hardware, and services).

"Every tap, button push and keyboard entry is recorded — effectively screenshotted — and sent back to the app developers", including credit card numbers, passwords, etc. When will people stop pretending that the #Apple system of a proprietary walled garden lead to more #security and #privacy? https://techcrunch.com/2019/02/06/iphone-session-replay-screenshots

I do believe it when #Apple says they're respecting their users' #privacy, just like I believe it when #DDG says that. But I am disappointed when I see how these companies neglect #freedom and how so few of their users care about it. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18917409 -

This is how it (should) work: In the case of Apple’s #iMessage, #Apple would be compelled to silently add new devices to the list apps think you own: when someone sends you a message, it will no longer just go to, say, your #iPhone, your #iPad, and your #MacBook – it will go to those devices, and a new addition, a spying device owned by the government...

@bthall Not your fault that #Apple's products are deficient. It opened fine on #Android. -

It is the last month of 2018, and #Apple still doesn’t support .ogg / .oga files. #Stuck_in-the_1990s -

This just popped up on my Apple TV:
“Your playback, searches, and device trust score are used to personalise your experience, improve that of others, and prevent fraud.”
What the fucking fuck, Apple? No, this is not OK at all.

Thanks, #Apple. Thanks to your garbage iOS 11.4 upgrade, I'm getting plenty of experience restoring iPhones from iTunes. -

@cypnk I would not expect that to happen as long as patent and copyright maximalists control the government. I'm also told #Apple hardware isn't all that different (just enough so their "only run on our hardware" hooks can engage), besides being pretty consistent (vs Windows and Linux running on a variety of hardware from dozens of vendors). -

Apparently, updating to #Apple's #iOS 11.2.6 threw #sonTwo's phone into a boot loop. He's trying to resolve it with the carrier before he requests a replacement phone. -

And the political class can smell blood. That #Zuckerberg #campaign was, to the political world, blood in the water, a signal of a new #vulnerability around his #company and his #industry.
