You are naive if you think there aren’t Zuckerberg and Dorsey equivalents working with the CCP over there.

You must be mistaken. Tim doing what's best for Apple's shareholders, not what's best for China. China happens to be the motherload of Yuan, so he's bending over, taking one for the team so Apple can make obscene amounts of $$$.
If the Chinese market were as profitable as the US market, he would have told the CCP to pound sand. Just goes to show how much money Apple is making from China.
China pretending to care about people’s privacy is hilarious
With an open system there’s less revenue sharing to Apple and more pressure to have their request fulfilled in less reasonable ways. They’re hardly “a victim” here.
Communist in name only, it's a front... it was capitalism that brought China to where it is now... Think about it, think about how much they produce and sell to the world...
And ofc Comrade Timmy willing gets on his knees and bows to his Chinese Masters. Smh. This despicable CEO has no integrity whatsoever. The sooner he is gone from Apple the better off we'll all be
Working with =/= screwing, I think you may have missed the meaning of the post you replied to.
Just count down from 5….5 years that is. BTW please don’t include me in your “we”.
Just like Samsung, Microsoft, HP, Dell, LG, and every other tech company needing to toe the line that wants to do business in China.
Not really keywords. Uber China is under the Didi umbrella. Uber backed out of the Chinese market years ago.
So does the big greedy Apple, their privacy efforts are purely to generate revenue, and not because they care about you.
Once it stop working out, they will run over the data they collected all those years under their privacy cover, if they aren’t doing this already silently, because soon they will introduce their own advertising network. Their goal is to partly kill Googles ad network, then take it over, simply to get a cut of it (Embrace, extend, and extinguish).
They also don’t care about jobs in your country, that’s why they manufacture primarily in China, India like any other company.
Apple is a purely revenue driven company.
Thinking Apple cares about you, or about your privacy, is like having sex with a whore and think she really loves you(Sorry for the ones who likes Pretty Woman the movie).

My house my rules. US banned Huawei and TikTok , Twitter and Google banned Parlor and Gab.com .
Makes me wondering why would corporates make multi-billion investments in such a totalitarian country where the rules can be changed so quickly, I would rather invest in something more like Thailand and India for cheap labour.
