@RBReich @jonstewart @linakhanFTC @JusticeATR Sinclair Broadcasting & numerous others are doing the same thing. Cookie cutter news, very little local news, heavily favoring TFG, basically propaganda for corporations & the 1%. These monopolies must be busted.

@jonstewart @linakhanFTC @JusticeATR Apple doesn't need to do anything. Look at the comment section. These guys defend monopolies for free.

It’s also a bad idea for lawyers to discuss an open matter they are party to on TV. Generally. Not saying not a concern but not so sure that is clear here.

John Walters2 years ago

@jonstewart @linakhanFTC @JusticeATR Is @justiceATR’s suit saying Apple needs to divest of its TV and movie production? Any producer of TV shows controls its content. What exactly is the point of mentioning that?

@jonstewart @linakhanFTC @JusticeATR Oh, dear. Better look into Disney and Netflix and NBC and CBS and ABC….

@jonstewart @linakhanFTC @JusticeATR By “exercise control” you mean produce content they want to produce? Isn’t that what TV producers do in a capitalist free market? Or are you suggesting Apple Inc was a monopoly in the “TV Talk Show” space?

@jonstewart @linakhanFTC @JusticeATR Why don’t you guys look into connections between NYT and publishing industries?

@jonstewart @linakhanFTC @JusticeATR This is INCREDIBLY strong evidence that Apple is NOT a monopoly. What happened after Apple said now? Stewart left and went somewhere else, where now he interviews anyone he wants. A thing that would be impossible were Apple to be a monopoly.

Davis: Now that we have Trump’s antitrust law enforcers at the FTC and the Antitrust Division with a target on Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple, Rep. Jim Jordan all of a sudden wants to use the reconciliation process to effectively shut down the FTC to stop it from holding Facebook accountable for its antitrust abuses. This is the same Facebook that spent $400 million chasing Donald J. Trump out of office in 2020 and subjecting him to lawfare. 🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸

To Steve Jobs, every feature, every detail, every pixel had to earn its place. If something didn't serve a clear purpose, it was out. This was the philosophy of Apple. No clutter, only focus & clarity.

Apple employee admits Apple can't afford to give its own staff the new chips "I was like, can Apple Enterprises not afford memory anymore? Do I have to buy maxed out?" "Honestly, man, the M3s are pretty good. You don't need an M5. You can just use an M3" "Even our employees at Apple aren't using the M4s or M5s" "They're out of chips, bro. They have zero chips left. It's over"

I really hope Elon doesn’t use his resources to do this… but with Apple choosing Google’s Gemeni to power Siri and other intelligence features, Elon calling this move an “unreasonable concentration of power,” and Democratic U.S. Senators writing a letter to Apple and Google’s CEO to remove 𝕏 app from its app stores… the chances of a new Tesla phone just went up materially.

This may be the funniest chapter in Apple’s India adventure. Apple moved part of its supply chain to India to escape the “China risk” narrative — only to end up accusing Indian regulators of copy-pasting its rivals’ claims in an antitrust probe. It left the world’s most complete industrial ecosystem and walked into a legal, regulatory, cybersecurity, and operational swamp. In China, Apple spent decades making money. In India, Apple is learning that the factory is only yours until the tax office, the regulator, the local partner, or the next data leak remembers it wants a piece. Supplier lists leaked. Component details leaked. Parts photos leaked. Confidential Apple files exposed. Factories caught fire. Antitrust probes accused of copy-pasting rivals’ claims. A tax law from 1961 suddenly threatening global iPhone profits. This has never been about “China+1.” This is India pretending to be China, minus discipline, infrastructure, and legal predictability — plus chaos. Foreign capital went to India looking for the next China. What it found was not a supply-chain alternative. It went there for profit. India came for the principal. China built an ecosystem. India built a PowerPoint. China made Apple rich. India is teaching Apple what real risk feels like. So stop talking about “the next China.” The next China is still China.

A resident of Gaza has exposed Hamas for blocking humanitarian aid from reaching civilians — a clear indication that the terrorist group prioritizes its power and control over the well-being of the people. This proves once again: Hamas is not interested in protecting Palestinians, but in maintaining its grip on Gaza at any cost. The world must not allow this to continue.

Here's more analysis on the Apple and Google deal to make a new kind of Siri, after I had a cup of coffee. This is what OpenAI is doing: they're making a variety of new products and going after Apple. Apple didn't want to give OpenAI any more data to help a potential new competitor. The real problem for this OpenAI effort is that we're about to move to glasses. People don't believe me that we're about to move to glasses, but you should, because I just got back from CES and there was a ton of glasses there. For OpenAI to really get somewhere, they need to add a camera to an earphone. While I don't see that in this latest report, I won't be shocked to see a camera show up somewhere eventually. It is cameras that add understanding of the real world, which can lead to many new features that Apple's current AirPods Pro can't match. I believe Apple is developing such a product to go with their glasses, which makes a lot of sense. Also, Google's AI models are better at multimodality; this means they can use cameras in a much better way than even OpenAI's models can. This is why in Silicon Valley robotics companies, a lot of them use Google Gemini: because robots need multimodality. Apple's glasses, which are expected in 2027, have some significant advantages over the others. First, they have eye sensors in them, so it knows where the user is looking. It also can tell what the user is touching, holding, or gesturing towards. This new capability will give Siri a significant parlor trick: it will let Siri answer questions that no other search engine has been able to answer before. But the real reason I'm still bullish on Apple's glasses isn't technology—it's content. Apple has NBA rights and Formula One (among others) and a really great studio system, which has produced one of the biggest hits of the last six months. Pluribus. Apple also, because of its privacy stance, has a significant lead in consumer trust. Because of its retail stores, it also has a significant lead in the ability to: 1. Show people glasses 2. Get them fit properly 3. Get people trained On Saturday, I went to the main Apple store in Cupertino and watched one of the classes that they teach every few hours in an Apple store. The store was packed with people watching the class on a huge screen in the middle of the store. Apple has dramatically changed retail because of its stores, which gives it the most trusted brand in the business and gives it distribution to most of the world's richest people. While OpenAI has almost a billion users, it is unclear whether those users will switch ecosystems from Apple to OpenAI. Even if OpenAI's AI and devices can do a few more things, I'm not so sure anybody's going to care when Apple has very capable headphones that match up with their iPhones and has the world's richest people addicted to the Apple ecosystem (me included). Here is one of the secret Chinese suites at CES, which makes a series of glasses to sell to other brands. This gives you a sense of how fast the glasses world is moving. AI needs to not just tell you what it's seeing, but it needs to show you things to really make the solution complete. Also, Apple usually picks a much better design than anyone else. Because it's such a luxury brand, it can charge more than anybody else and be more profitable. I don't see anyone else being able to put together the whole solution the way Apple can. Therefore, I am still very bullish on Apple making a dramatic announcement about glasses sometime in the next 24 months. At CES, though, it's clear that many manufacturers will try. XREAL 👓 just got $100 million of funding to continue its glasses development, and officials of the company told me it will release its Android XR based glasses later this year. Short version: AI is coming to wearables in a big way, and Apple will do what it always does: come in late to the market and redefine it when it enters. It still has all the pieces to put together the puzzle, even though it doesn't have its own LLM so had to do a deal with Google for that. Yeah, others will be earlier to the market, and will win some buyers because of that, but buyers like me know that and will be happy to put down our other ones to buy Apple because of its advantages. With one big caveat: Apple has to deliver an amazing pair of glasses, and maybe a headphone with a camera, to keep the competition from taking its lunch. Also, behind the scenes there is a big patent battle brewing. Apple has quite a few, but I talked with Ann Greenberg at CES, who started Gracenote. She says she has several patents that will enable a large company to force others to license their technology and that she's already in final stages of selling those patents to a big company. All the big companies have patent portfolios they can use against each other, and particularly smaller, newer, competitors. Microsoft alone has dozens of patents it bought to start off its Hololens efforts, which it gave up on, but Microsoft still has almost 1,000 lawyers who would love to go after other companies for licensing deals. Plus, Google-funded Magic Leap has about 1,000 patents, so it'll be interesting to see if anyone buys the remnants of that company. The question is: can anyone disrupt Apple? Especially OpenAI?

"There are two common threads in our legal... The first is the constitutional checks and balances where Congress actually asserts its role in controlling an executive and impeaching and removing an executive, because that's a concentration of power and corruption that we're seeing that the Framers of our constitution never intended. The second is the antitrust laws. The same idea was behind the antitrust laws, restricting power, and restricting control. Right now we have an unholy alliance between power in government, corruption in government, and corruption in the corporate media that is threatening our democracy. And we need to start by getting rid of Trump."

No longer a conspiracy theory Apple Siri is listening to you even when not promoted “Apple has agreed to pay nearly $100 million to settle a lawsuit accusing the company of using Siri to eavesdrop on people using the iPhone and other devices. It claims the recordings happened even when people didn't use the trigger words, hey Siri. Some of the conversations were then shared with advertisers.” “Apple isn't admitting any wrongdoing in the settlement”

If #Bitcoin goes to zero when the founder shows up, why didn't Apple collapse when Steve Jobs died ? That's the whole point of a decentralized system: it doesn't need its founder. Does Dan Pena not know this, or is he just farming clicks ? If Satoshi came back, the first thing he'd do is block Dan Pena. $BTC is code, not gossip.
