What doesn't fit here?

The core of the story has to be technology focused.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.

This lawsuit is going nowhere. You can literally sign up to any cloud backup provider and install their app on your iPhone.

Not true. You can only install an app approved by Apple as they control who are allowed into the ecosystem in the first place. With that in mind, them promoting their first party service does give them unfair advantage.

And all the cloud backup providers have apps on the App Store already. I personally have backups going to 3 separate ones - and I don't use Apple's first party service lol.

You know you don't have to cuck for every trillion dollar corporation, right? You can choose to advocate for consumers, or say nothing at all, at any time...

Are you dumb? I’m telling you that you can already easily back up your phone data to other services.
