Plenty of moral people work for immoral companies all the time. This isn’t some big gatcha as much as it is a complete dismissal akin to the way a C-Suite exec might completely dismiss your opinion.

Who?

CEO Matt Garman said nine out of 10 workers he has spoken with support the new policy

Got news for you, Matt. 9 out of 10 workers are kissing your ass.

Oh cool! A search engine that’ll give you fake URL’s!

Oh no, what ever would we do without the tweets from game developers? How How will clickbait articles survive? On the plus side, they’d get a lot less death threats for updates to their games. And we wouldn’t have a new news article for every fucking tweet that gets made.

Don’t think they mean sharing data. I think they’re referring to sharing an equally regulated digital environment. That could totally be done without sharing info, but following equal practices.

Really at this point, the lack of regulation is already killing the Internet. Google search isn’t search anymore, it’s ad delivery. Reddit and Facebook are ‘news’ for a huge majority of people. Amazon is essentially the only online retailer people have available, and where other options exist, Amazon uses it’s leverage to make those other experiences just a bit worse. All of these companies use their size and monopolistic weight to prevent competition and by extension worsen consumer options and create worse experiences.

The digital market is doing what any market does, just a lot faster.

Just you wait. They’ll offset the tip with a “Driverless vehicle delivery” fee.

For real. My server always finds media within minutes of being posted. Granted I primarily use Usenet, and only BitTorrent as a fall back, but even still, piracy has never been easier for me.

A lot of people today don’t even know how to use their devices, but only how to use the products offered by those conpanies.

That has always been the case.

I downloaded the repository as soon as I saw the lawsuit. Dunno what to do with it, but it’s there lol.

To me, this seems like a big misstep for Apple. Granted I’m no fanboy, but I’ve appreciated Apple’s design and products over the last few decades. This to me just seems half baked. And that’s not something I expected from Apple’s hardware. I personally don’t think I’ll ever wear a computer on my face for more than 30 minutes at a time. Even if the weight goes down dramatically, it’s just not a convenient experience. The last thing I need with my technology is more inconvenience.

I have compassion for people or families losing employment/income

Why does it sound so much like the gun debate?

Really? Like honest to God? They aren’t gonna gimp the implementation, are they?

Can we just pause and think on that? A dating app named X doesn’t exactly ring with success.

Seriously. Dark patterns are the bane of my existence. And this isn’t exclusive to mobile games, but mobile games in my opinion are some of the most nefarious due to the way they constantly try to “reward” players for taking certain actions designed to get you to interact with their stupid fuckin currencies, which are also designed to disassociate from real money, all to get you thinking it’s ok to give up some of your hard earned cash to level up a fuckin stick or some stupid shit.
