Why hasn’t Apple responded to this? What the hell?
- sqldba 6y agoIt hasn’t gotten a strong enough backlash. They commented on all the *gates and even the ocsp issue which reached mainstream media. But this is so low level (normal people don’t know or care about firewalls except it’s running, or understand why it’s bad for Apple to bypass it) that it won’t become big enough to get that kind of press and response. Once it’s exploited and has a pretty name, maybe.
- heavyset_go 6y agoThey spent millions of dollars plastering all sorts of media with ads about how much Apple loves privacy, and they figure that they can hire a few people to write articles explaining how it is actually good that Apple gets to decide what traffic should and shouldn't go through your VPN[1].

- dirtiest-thing 6y agoLet me see... hu... Interesting example of fragmented pressure-group politics, not ? More generally... a few days ago, I watched TV (the old linear one... ^^) and sure there were some ads, mainly about food, caring (clothing, hygiene, room) and somehow 'imagecare' (cellphones and magically 'digital identity') ...um (to keep it short)... so let me ask, were all of the polarizing only serving as a use to sell something like "Inseldenken"?
