I can imagine that the following is going to happen.
1. Apple announces the scanning feature (done)
2. People dislike it; backslash (happened)
3. Apple is worried about the brand, publishes statement that they are going to delay (happened)
4. People say "great", "wonderful" (ongoing)
5. Apple waits 5 months, release this crap feature anyway
6. People moved on, media does not want to repeat the same messages again, not many people care anymore
7. DONE.
This is the same thing that Facebook did with its TnC. People complained, Facebook took it back, re-introduced it 3 months later. Nobody cares anymore.
- c7DJTLrn 5y agoMost people don't care even at step 2. It's only technical people with concerns about privacy and corporate overreach behind this backlash. Most of that group will continue using iPhones no matter what out of convenience and unwillingness to stand up for their principles. I stood my ground and actually took some action when something made me unhappy. This is the only way things change.
