    If Apple allowed side-loading of apps on iOS:

    • would they still require the ability to use a kill switch?
    • how would this affect their ability to build the right binary for the right platform architecture at installation time?

    Here is a short story. In 1985, I was working for an authorized Apple dealer in my home town. I was an Apple zealot (surprise?) and I wanted to work for them.

    +1. Very sad seeing Apple acting like this. Maybe Apple seeling great products, they are telling lies too. Can we have it both ways? #apple twitter.com/timsweene…

    Do you think Apple has plans already in place to allow for third-party payment systems on the App Store, just in case they are being forced to add these?

    Is it me or Apple had a pretty easy day today? Seems all the attention went to Google, Facebook and Amazon. My guess is that it reflects a fact: Apple is not in a monopolistic position like the other three. www.cnbc.com Live: Big Tech testifies: Bezos promises action if investigation reveals misuse of seller data Continue reading →

    Highly doubtful that Apple already has the date set for the September Keynote in current context. Even more for October event. Take this with a grain of salt. ‘iPhone 12’ event Sept. 8 with ‘Apple Glass’ & Apple Silicon Mac reveal on Oct. 27, says leaker - Appleinsider

    Here is a bunch of Apple inconsistencies in design. On macOS Big Sur: you can add a widget by clicking on it, but not on iOS. Still on Big Sur, notifications are stacked on top of the widgets space on the right while on iOS they get their own space. Explain this to me, Apple.
