    The lawsuit against Apple has to do with interoperability and Tim Cook is on record saying he's not going to fix the "green bubble" issue because adopting RCS doesn't sell iPhones.
    "I don't hear our users asking that we put a lot of energy [into RCS] at this point. I would love to convert you to an iPhone."
    "I can't send my mom certain videos," said an attendee.
    "Buy your mom an iPhone," said Tim.
    The user experience is degraded on purpose to draw and lock people into the Apple ecosystem for much the same reason they got away with proprietary hardware and anti-repair practices so long.

      Its not just the big ticket items either, it's almost everything they make at every level.
      Apple's USB C DAC (USB C to 3.5mm adapter) is designed to artificially limit its performance when it's plugged into an Android. It's one of the best DACs under $100, so people have figured out how to bypass the limiter, and there are no adverse effects when you turn it off. The limiter only exists to harm the experience of Android users

The commercials make it look glamorous and fun. I’ve been in there 3 times in 25 years and it’s depressing AF.

I’m a professional photographer who uses a Google Pixel because it has an awesome camera, blowing away Apple’s iPhone, yet the File Transfer app no longer works on Apple devices, so my iPad will not recognize the Pixel, thus I have been unable to download my photos in a direct manner, so Apple sucks, as far as I am concerned, and I will no longer be purchasing any of their ridiculously expensive products unless they get their shit together and serve their customers, instead of their bottom line.

Let's face it, folks - if IT companies were the first to deliver electricity to your home, your plugs would be overpriced, proprietary garbage, and they would be lobbying governments to make it illegal to get around their proprietary crap, while including microphones and other monitoring to 'improve your user experience' of plugging shit into a socket while nerfing the competition. 'Hey, end user, that thing you tried to plug into the socket isn't connected using a wire with our chip, so, yeah, we're gonna go ahead and kill the audio because we're super-concerned about your audio experience, and don't think too hard on this, just go buy our wire!

    Here in Japan they do the " piranha's cow" technique
    They let the pure wealthy Japanese do whatever they want and when is close to the bomb explode they put someone on the spot light to not hurt the "Japanese faces"
    This happens a lot when some companies here go busted; soon before the amount of debt explode they put a foreigner as a CEO, who is not aware of and let the foreigners take the blame, and because we have less rights here we became an easy target
    That's what looks like, maybe, mizuhara is just the piranha's cow on this situation. Just an speculation
    But besides that, here in Japan gambling is a problem. We have an immense taboo toward to mental health and addiction recovery. So even if Shohei and mizuhara are addicted, search for mental health is nearly impossible in Japanese society

    You don't necessarily need a traditional monopoly to engage in anti-competitive behavior. Of course not all anti-competitive behavior is strictly actionable under anti-trust legislation (that is why the EU passed the Digital Markets Act). I think the important factor here is that apple is using it's dominant position in a duopoly of mobile phone operating systems to keep users locked into to their specific ecosystem. And yes, Apple isn't the only company doing this - but they one of the the biggest companies doing this. If not the biggest, depending on what you measure the size by. Sometimes going after the biggest players first is the most efficient use of prosecutor and regulator resources. Again, the european DMA also does exactly that by specifically targeting the biggest companies in tech.

    The thing about the Apple Watch is that you literally can’t use it with Android, unlike Air Pods which can be used with Android over Bluetooth.
    Also, the green bubble thing is actually a big issue. I’ve gone on dates with people who’ve admitted that green bubbles are a red flag for them (which is honestly kind of a red flag for me). It was even revealed in the Epic case that Apple abandoned their port of iMessage to Android because they wanted to preserve vendor lock-in.
    As an Apple user, I honestly feel stuck in the ecosystem. Their talk of privacy is all a ruse to distract from their anticompetitive practices. They care about your privacy from other companies, but they don’t hold themselves to the same standards, and they constantly change the App Store rules to fit their needs.

      And, counterpoint, this kind of stuff is *precisely* the government's job -- you know, protecting consumers? Consumers can be manipulated, especially when marketing for decades has convinced them that the exact issues in question are part of the image, exclusivity and appeal of the offending products.

    Not saying it's a valid basis for an antitrust action, but damn near everyone I know with an iPhone really does care a lot about the green bubble nonsense. I fully believe that even if other phones became significantly cheaper and better than the iphone, they wouldn't even consider becoming a green-bubble-class person.

  • @ShaneTheBane
    @ShaneTheBane 2 месяца назад +23

    The bubble color thing is mainly a teenager thing, but that doesnt mean it cant also be an anti-conpetitive thing. Teenagers are just as much consumers as adults are.
    This is the main part of this lawsuit i agree with. When you look at the stark difference of apple/android users between teens and adults, you see the "bullying" works. Its something like 90% of teenagers prefer apple. No exaggeration. And one day those teenagers turn into adults where the "bullying" doesnt work on them, much like it doesnt work on you, but they're already in that ecosystem, already less likely to move to other platforms, and already apple has won.

    The real problem with text messages is Apple refuses to use RCS text messages with apple to Android texting instead they use SMS which is from the 90s and has no encryption. All androids use RCS texts so basically android to android text are secure, Apple to Apple texts are secure but Apple to Android texts are not because Apple has to make everything difficult unless you buy exclusively from them

      Yeah, it was really weird that they didn't touch the actual purpose of the lawsuit. It's nearly impossible to use an Android smartwatch with your iPhone phone, but you can use Airpods on your Android. If you own an iPhone you need Apple peripherals. It took a lawsuit in the EU to force them to change the charging cords to USB-C. Plus, the whole issue about shared photos and videos either looking like shit or not even working is a *huge* deal.

    The "bullying" aspect of the green bubble might not work on you, but it can work on the young, which locks them into the Apple products from a young age.
    Plus, actively making the Apple user's experience worse to give off the illusion of competitors' products being worse is definitely unethical. If your product is good, you don't need to lie about others. Just because Apple isn't the only product around doesn't mean its actions aren't anti-competitive.

That is not something that is simply happening organically. The problem lies in their deliberate causing of these issues. The lawsuit is anything BUT stupid. If successful, this will be a huge benefit for the consumer. It has MUCH more involved than "not liking then green bubble".
