Governments the world over use the “national security” excuse as a means to cover up their shifty practices. I’m fed up with it.
No one is going to build factories in the US. It takes billions of dollars to build them and years to complete. And with Trump on and off with everything he is doing, no action is the smart action.Trump is trying to force companies like Nintendo to build factories in USA. If Nintendo doesn't build factories in USA, that is "taking a stand"
They don't need to. All they need to do is care about the loss of sales from this. That's enough for them to fight it for consumers.Don’t fool yourself into thinking Apple truly cares about us consumers.

And while we're re-adding removable batteries, let's also add those little contacts on the bottom that laptops used to have for easily attaching to docks.As long as I can swap out the battery I’m okay with a back door on my iPhone. 🥸🤡
Agreed except it wasn't a "request" - since that implies the ability to say no. It was an order with the force of law behind it, unless the courts block it.The original request was an invasion of civil liberties, pure and simple.

Apple have already removed the iCloud features affected by this “backdoor” in the U.K. it doesn’t affect anyone else.If they pull out, then they don't have to have any backdoor.
Small businesses are the only ones that care about customers.I actually really do think Apple cares about its customers in a way other companies don't. Does that mean they are always going to put their customers' needs over their profit? Of course not. ....
Oh but I hope the do. The sight of sweatshops and assembly lines manned by ham-fisted cowboys is too appealing.No one is going to build factories in the US.

With wall sized images of Chairman Trump and vanity Vance staring down on the huddled MAGA masses. Glorious.Row upon row of sweat soaked MAGA caps flinching with each crack of the whip.
How do you think it’s been in other parts of the world?! Do you believe multi-nationals went off shore for the sunshine.How do you feel about Florida reducing child labour laws? Search for "florida child labor laws" first factories are going to be built in Florida
Child labor needs to be stopped worldwide, not re-implemented in the USA. Right?How do you think it’s been in other parts of the world?! Do you believe multi-nationals went off shore for the sunshine.
I actually really do think Apple cares about its customers in a way other companies don't. Does that mean they are always going to put their customers' needs over their profit? Of course not. But I'd argue that the path they are currently taking with regards to this UK request is absolutely putting their customers first.
Of course child labour and other related abuses should be stopped. Perhaps placing this evil right in full sight something will be done. Until now it’s been a case of ‘out of sight out of mind’.Child labor needs to be stopped worldwide, not re-implemented in the USA. Right?
