And the odd thing is that Google has been significantly better for consumers than other FAANG companies.
Apple has historically been anti consumer and anti developer with a huge marketing budget to wash it. Facebook intentionally makes us sad. M$ and their anti competitive practices should be well known.

- nemothekid 5y ago>Apple has historically been anti consumer What? Apple has been pro-consumer to the detriment of everyone else. Developers are still screaming that they aren't allowed to install malware on my iphone.
- ThatPlayer 5y agoThat works both ways though: I'm not allowed to install anything I want on my phone, which is anti-consumer.
- nikanj 5y agoAnd FBI is still upset that Apple won't install a back door for them.

- Nevermark 5y ago"Let" Russia? I am pretty sure that Russia is the one firmly in charge of that decision, not Apple. It isn't inconsistent to push back on government overreach where it is legal to do so, but conform where they have no other legal choice except dropping an entire market. Or do you propose another solution?
