Yeah, I feel like oop reached the wrong conclusion after this. Apple treats its consumers as if they were mindless children and they (for some reason) love it. Just look at the whole “green texts” issue, for example.
Some manufacturers found a smart workaround but the apple brainrot is stronger, I guess.
I just don’t understand why Biden hasn’t stopped the transfer of military equipment. Everyone, even the coldest psychopath, has a cost-benefit analysis to guide their decisions. I can’t see any political, geopolitical or whatever benefit the USA may be getting from this. There must be something else going on that is not public.
