The Title Is Hilarious

Matt Stoller just wrote this and the title made me laugh and laugh and laugh... 'Apple F$@ks Around with Court Order, Finds Out'. The introductory lead to the story is also funny:

"It's our F$@KING STORE." Apple decided not to obey a court order telling it to open its app store to Fortnite. Yesterday Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers smacked them down, backed up by an appeals court.

As the article says, it's not really that Judge Gonzalez Rogers has been stern with and judged against Apple, at least up until recently. Apple's gotten away with lots. However, the last judgment basically made Apple open their App store to Fortnite (Epic Games) and other App developers. And Apple wouldn't do it... for Fortnite - the other app developers got app store access right away.

From this older, but also good, article: Apple vs Epic Games vs The People

I'm not digitally oriented at all. Yesterday, I had trouble unlocking the gate to a storage facility I'm using because I couldn't get the "app" to work. I couldn't remember my password, had the bluetooth turned off, was using a later "smart phone" supposedly more advanced than the antique I had been using which had served me better for quite a while. So, I'm the proverbial elderly person that just can't keep up trying to adjust to all the changes.

The bozos on Fox are calling it a scandal as a recording of his fuzzy headed babbling two years ago has miraculously showed up in the news.

Rambling thoughts are all I have left.
No matter who is in the White House, nothing ever changes.
The same with the Congress, both houses, nothing ever changes.

I'm okay with bigthink.com . If I had any objection to it, it would be that it gives the impression that philosophy is some sort of "big think," whereas in real life philosophy is an activity on the order of rubbing your belly or going for a walk. Philosophy, then, like rubbing your belly or going for a walk, is a reaction to conditions.
