I could excuse it if the iPad was a $200 novelty like the Amazon Fire tablets, but they're putting M-series chips in them and marketing (and pricing) them like PC replacements.

Profiles don't work well on Apple TVs at all though. You choose a profile on the device, and then you still have to choose a profile whenever you launch any given streaming app as well. I don't know what changing profiles on an Ap

Something I see often in technical circles (and I'm not accusing you) is the manufacturing of consent for ghoulish behaviour by describing it in a reductive way. I think there's a bias to consider sophisticated violations of civil
