“The enemy of my enemy is my friend?”A witness from Facebook? Seriously? Good for Apple. Trust and Facebook are opposites IMAO.

Apple Maps was bad because of apples anticompetitive arrogance against Google and nothing but.
Yeah, good luck finding Scott Forstall.
So competition is good except when it applies to Apple, then it’s anti-competitive?[…] anticompetitive arrogance […]
LOL! Somewhere either ON or OFF Broadway.Yeah, good luck finding Scott Forstall.
To be fair, it was his decision to push for release knowing it won’t perform very well with the lack of data.Apple Maps was bad due to lack of data, not really his fault.
Indeed, we don’t know.How can we know? Was this really Scott’s fault? Under how much pressure was he to release Apple Maps at that time? Did he warn it wasn’t ready or not? We don’t know the details. All we know is he was fired because he did not want to sign the letter of apology to the public.
My interpretation was that Scott wasn't fired because of Maps, but because of his abrasive attitude that made it hard for many other executives to work with him. Maps just provided a convenient excuse for Tim Cook to fire him, but either way, it was clear in hindsight that Scott Forstall's days at Apple were numbered so long as he refused to toe the line.How can we know?

Last I checked, Epic too runs their own App Store and charges developers a commission to host and sell their apps.I see how it can be hard for people not to empathize with Epic. I still make an effort of the see the hard work of the content creators. When you are an entire company and see 30% of your profits taken away by an intermediary for no reason, i could understand the struggle. Good luck Epic.
Yeah... I rocked my launch day s0 until grabbing my s5. The screen on the 0 is trashed: awful burn-in, whole thing is super dark, virtually useless now. Sitting in a drawer (ironically enough, I just charged it yesterday and was reminded how awful the screen was). But in no way was it obsolete in a year. It’s greatest feature then is still my fav - even on my s5 today: I pull my iPhone out way less than pre-watch era.Noooooooo… as someone that happily wore that first Apple Watch (SS) for years I don't agree at all.
In my opinion calling that first AW obsolete after a year is as ignorant as calling every earlier iPhone obsolete simply because Apple releases a new one every year.
Yes. There can be many reasons for someone being fired. Yelling in a meeting, having a poor attitude, messing up massively, and more. People are getting fired for much more ridiculous things these days like completely false accusations.My interpretation was that Scott wasn't fired because of Maps, but because of his abrasive attitude that made it hard for many other executives to work with him.

People need to stop bringing this up. No, macOS and Windows is not "just as secure" as an iPhone. I have actually seen malware on a macOS device and never seen one on iOS. The classic desktop model is NOT secure.....NO way.....Just look at what is happening to Windows environments recently. Solarwinds, Microsoft Exchange, still hearing massive reports about Ransomware taking down businesses (some hospitals and CD Prokekt Red). We still are in an environment where one bad email and one employee that falls for it can take down an ENTIRE company until they restore from backups. So I really wish people would stop with the "macOS" and to some extent "Windows" are "just fine". The only reason macOS has less malware is due to market share. If I were to write something malicious, I would go after Windows since there is more of a chance to get someone.It is very telling that Scott is on Epic’s list instead of Apple....it is also telling that Apple is bringing in so many people to praise the security of this App Store model when the Mac is secure without it (aka browser downloads)
macOS malware is worse than its ever been IMO. I have 3 iPhones in the house, 2 android phones, 2 mac laptops, and several windows machines (desktops, laptops).People need to stop bringing this up.

And macOS malware is on a rise too.
How about all the developers Epic tricked into thinking they were getting a better deal with Epic's 12.5% rate only to find out they give you nothing for that and that you lose closer to 45-50% or even more per sale? Epic give you the equivalent of hosting a webpage for their 12.5%. Google, Valve, and Apple give you a complete package for 15/30% and with no hidden fees.I see how it can be hard for people not to empathize with Epic. I still make an effort of the see the hard work of the content creators.

well that's one aspect lack of data but the engine behind is was garbage also and that's kinds his fault cause he was the leader of the projects so he should tested it in smalls detail
Why - who was in charge of building/acquiring the database?
“The enemy of my enemy is my friend?”
Go see Phil Schiller: "Can't innovate my ass"
Heard a rumor he’s held up in a Thatch Roof Cabin in West-Central Wales near the Mach Loop.![]()
LOL! Somewhere either ON or OFF Broadway.
Nah he’s be like Ultimate Warrior when he military pressed some 300lbs guy for a 10 count in the ring. That boys n girls I think he 80’s was Epic!!Will Forstall be like Hulk Hogan at Bash at the Beach?
Whose side is he on!!?
