    Other than their asinine charging cable/accessory situations I consistently find myself agreeing with Apple pretty much any time any government body or group is mad they won’t do something.

      They’re generally on the wrong side of the battle for right to repair and removable batteries too.

      But yeah, privacy they almost always have the right of it.

      how do you reckon?

      only time they have been on the consumer’s side was with regards to privacy, refusing to comply with the FBI and now this.

      everything else they are pretty anti-consumer, off the top of my head

      • first to remove jack 3.5 (even though I don’t really care about this, others do.)
      • sticking to shitty lightning cable so they can sell overpriced cables
      • the charger thing with the EU
      • worst of all entirely against right to repair

      Requiring usb c was something I agreed with. But indeed many times apple has rightly fought for their userbase.
