Not to call you out, but what other moves are you thinking of (legitimately curious)?

- pirateking 15y agoApple almost always puts respect for the end user (the paying customer) as one of its highest priorities. Off the top of my head, some examples would be: not forcing users to enter license keys for software, dropping DRM from iTunes, blocking third-party cookies by default, and their refusal to allow the carriers to pollute the iPhone with their preloaded software. Now I just wish they would make it easy for me to set DuckDuckGo as my default search engine in Safari.
- batista 15y agoWell, off the top of my head: 1) The "third party cookies block" championed by Safari for one. 2) Refusing to let the publishers get user info without the user opting in first (there was big hoopla about that from the publisher's end): http://counternotions.com/2011/02/16/stores/ http://counternotions.com/2011/02/16/stores/
