Did you know the age verificatiion that apple did within the UK wasn’t mandatory for them? They chose to go out of their way to kiss ass.
the online safety act would be undone within 1 day if apple sent a message to every UK-dwelling apple device warning them that their apple devices won’t work within a week if they don’t petition their government to undo that bullshit totalitarian surveillance and censorship bullshit
by the way…apple can just decide to make your apple products not work anymore. They can also remove any app from your apple products they don’t want you to have. 1 update is all it takes.
The fact that apple don’t feel they can do this or a good thing. We don’t want companies who think they are more powerful than governments. It would be preferential if governments were doing things in our interest all the time, but it’s a start.
In this case, when apple made people dox themselves to be able to use their apple devices in the UK, it was corporations and governments working together to fuck all of us
and remember! It’s not about protecting kids, it never was and it isn’t now.
Pretty much what they did in China as well. Google, back when they had a backbone, decided to leave instead, and Apple was like, “How can we censor ourselves better for you?”
You ever see the doc on how Apple built and modernized China’s entire technology manufacturing economy in a way that had they not, we’d probably not see them as nearly the competition they are?
