  nice ty. i always have so much trouble finding these links but i have Apple News+. is there an easy way to do it? i always have to manually go through issues.

    In Safari you can hit the Share button at the bottom then pick News.

      Odd. That is not there for me and I cannot add it :( I have the same problem as OP. I wish it were simple.

        The “News” icon (to open a paywalled article in Apple News) only appears in the Share sheet in Safari.app proper.

        It’s a bit amusing to me that this sounds like another, different anti-trust issue. Apple’s browser having this feature, which other browser vendors (presumably) can’t add, to open another app would also look bad to an EU judge.

    Usually if the article is on Apple News+ it will come up if you search the headline on the “following” tab

  why do we want an apple link that just redirects to the original article? is this just "look at me i'm a mac user" levels of spam?
  - AntonyGarand 1y ago
    I believe this is a way to use their own apple news subscription to access the article instead of using the archive version: It only redirects if you're not logged in to apple news.
    - jillyboel 1y ago
      So it's spam in the eyes of everyone who doesn't happen to subscribe to their service of choice? If they want to read an article through their news app they are of course free to do so, but why spam that link?

        Is it really spam if it was posted a single time? Just downvote it and collapse the thread if you don't want to see it.

        And flag it, bc it's a no value ad.

        If someone submit a Spotify link as an HN submission, I'd hope that's flagged for spam too.

    Apple News+ is a bundle subscription to many otherwise paywalled newspapers, so people who have it can read it through there. If you view it on an Apple device, it takes you to the Apple News app and opens it there, rather than redirecting.

The article is short enough that it makes more sense to quote it in full than to provide an archive link: > A federal judge hammered Apple for violating a ruling in an antitrust case that required the company to loosen certain restrictions it imposes on software-makers in its App Store. > Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ordered the iPhone-maker to allow developers to steer users to alternative methods of paying for services or subscriptions offered in the App Store. The company also can no longer impose fees in such scenarios or restrict the ability of software-makers to offer links or otherwise communicate alternate payment options with consumers. > “Apple willfully chose not to comply with this court’s injunction,” she said in the ruling. “It did so with the express intent to create new anticompetitive barriers.” She referred the case to federal prosecutors to determine whether a criminal contempt investigation is appropriate. > The order is the latest twist in the long-running legal dispute between Apple and Epic Games, developer of the popular videogame “Fortnite.”

  There’s more than this, though.

    ...wait, there is? It's not in the archive.is link!
    - virgoerns 1y ago
      WSJ probably updated the article. Here's the newer link: https://archive.is/20250501040217/https://www.wsj.com/tech/apple-violated-antitrust-ruling-federal-judge-finds-66b85957 https://archive.is/20250501040217/https://www.wsj.com/tech/a...

        Makes sense. The original link says “updates to follow as news develop” at the bottom. And I guess they really meant that – that they were planning on expanding on it already when they first published the initial, short version of it.
