Everything you said is hypothetically true but fails to withstand scrutiny.
Apple has a brand of trust and security. If they decided to become even the tiniest bit evil in that dimension their “secure” brand would evaporate overnight.
Unless you think they control all media and levers to power too?
- beeboobaa3 3y agoThe org has that brand. Could be that a small part of the org with access to the correct tech has different ideas. Like I said, the entire org doesn't have to be in on it. I don't actually believe this is actually happening, but it could.
- disgruntledphd2 3y agoWhat, if they did something like set up a massive ad sales team after banning FBs competing tools and literally went to all the gaming advertisers and told them that Apple would still let them target on payment status? Something like that, perhaps? Fortunately we live in a world where corporations are never hypocrites, so that definitely didn't happen.
- r00fus 3y agoFirst off, I’m far more concerned about end-user security and privacy than anti-competitive moves. For the latter I’m sure the FTC will cover that in their antitrust suit. Secondly do you have a link for your targeting claims?
- disgruntledphd2 3y agoI hope this does get covered in the suits, but im sceptical. The targeting stuff was all verbal communication from Apple sales reps, i dont have a link.
