I've been with Apple since the 1980's as a contained ecosystem with the best privacy features. This will be the straw that broke the camel's back. Have assiduously avoided anything and everything Google. If Apple puts anything from Google on my phone, iPad, laptop, or 3 desktops, they will all be trash canned. Done with Siri, done with Apple.
Just wondering. What did you do when Apple incorporated Google Map as the default Map app, when Apple launched its own Map app in 2012?
 
So what are the benefits for you in terms of Apple‘s market cap?

Would you rather have a company that innovates or are you just happy about Apple‘s market cap?

Tim Cook’s Apple is just all about the money while lacking in the innovation department. Other companies focus on innovation, not just money. Market cap doesn‘t reflect innovation.

From think different to "f*** innovation, think money".

I was responding to you saying:

"When will Tim Cook finally step down? He's the culprit of all things going wrong with Apple the past decade."

The benefits for me in terms of Apple's market cap? I'm an investor in Apple so I don't think it's needed to explain further on that one. But y'all have these bizarre ideas of what a public company is supposed to do it seems. Their point *is* to make money, nothing else. Tim has been doing that in spades since the Steve Jobs days.

"Think Different" was in the late 1990s when Apple was just about dead and they had to bring Jobs back to try to save it. Thats a different universe to today when Apple is one of the biggest companies on the planet and frankly still innovating like crazy. Oh, I'm sorry, you expect them to come out with something as revolutionary as the iPhone every year? Good luck with that.

Which other public companies are focusing on innovation and not concerned about profit by the way? I'd love to see the list.
