Thank you!

I'm not disagreeing with any of that... But it is still a show in the end. If Apple really cared about the labor conditions, they would be pulling out of there or taking control of the manufacturing themselves, not finding ways to try to make it work through their contractors.

That's exactly what he argued:

And to my point again, these services have been free for years. If they weren't pushing the boundaries on what is acceptable use of data, advertisers would still be buying into the same limited data they were 5 years ago.

Those might be features that you, as an App developer, think are reasonable to implement and are beneficial. Myself and many others would disagree, however. Downloading your app is not carte blanche for you to think for your users and to sneak data for what YOU perceive as legitimate uses.

I don't disagree. This is exactly what I've been wanting since moving to Android. All I'm saying is that it's still at least that very tiny bit better.

Apple hasn't "opened themselves up". You make it sound like Apple did this because they think it's right. Apple did this because of the amount of public outrage that was already growing and specifically so that they could sucker people like you into believing they care.

I get what you're saying, but what will throwing it all away accomplish? Even more pointless e-waste? Higher revenue profits for these companies next quarter when everyone starts buying replacements?

Not true at all.

Wow... Son of a...

I'll agree that Apple is at shared fault here, and I'll raise you one further.

I think the concept is more to be therapeutic and relaxing. They have showers like this (except nowhere near as nice) in Spas

I just found my dream shower. I've been wanting to build something like this for years.

In your scenario, yes. You have an apartment in a shitty part of NYC, and you forget to lock up when you leave. You get broken into without any forced entry. You're sure as shit just as much to blame on that one. You should know better.

Precisely

It's been 5 years since I've been to London, but if it's still like it was back then, this is them finally catching up with removing them all after 2001. It was next to impossible to find a trash bin anywhere in the city when I was there, and when the tourist activity dies down towards the end of the night, the…

"So you are saying that with this commercial, it was Apple's onset objective to be Big Brother back in 1984? That wasn't the point of this commercial. Let me give you a history lesson."
