This should be raising some eyebrows from regulators regarding antitrust no?

+1 i get so many obvious spam emails delivered to my gmail account yet they block / filter my emails any of the 3+ times i have tried to host my own email. The email monopoly/ centralization it out of control.

With their plans to encrypt icloud contents by the the end of the year they would not be able to scan anyways if i user has that enabled anyways right?

The proposed scanning was on-device. They could have done it regardless of iCloud encryption.

But it only did so if the user had iCloud photos enabled.

We don't actually know because they never shipped the feature. But having iCloud enabled was not a required part of their scanning system, it was simply an if-else check, and we just had to take their word for it that they wouldn't scan anyway.

Still, even if the scanning was only if iCloud was enabled, that's still a step too far in my book because Apple makes it very difficult for alternate photo backup apps to work well. iCloud uses background syncing/upload in ways that third-party apps are prevented from using.

Which could be easily changed without users' knowledge any time.

It wasn’t scanning. They took a fingerprint of every photo and encrypted it so only if that fingerprint matched on the server side and only if 5 of those matches occurred, they could view a photo thumbnail.

The best is when you use the linkedin connection to pull your resume and then they ask you to fill in the same information again. Insta close any app that does this

If they could only fix the constant outages

85m hahaha google probably has had larger rounding errors

Second this, also stemming from this tend to fall behind technically speaking on the “bleeding edge”

I think the only option for that is flashing custom firmware, which i am not sure can be done on the most recent hardware revisions.

Signed up for adobe trial to use a feature of it that was not included in the free version. Forgot to cancel during free period, tried to cancel subscription they wanted a 120$ early cancellation fee. Charged it back on my cc and blacklisted adobe from charging my cc ever again. Sad say for sigma users have always heard really good things from friends that use it.
