Again, point me to apple’s attempts to implement or help create a texting standard. Unless you’d like to instead say that standards are not an extremely important part of human society. Because unless you believe that, their actions are indefensible and that’s a separate issue from how fucked up Google is.
You’re ignoring the part where Google tried and carriers and apple refused… That’s not some irrelevant detail
Google attempted an open standard, carriers refused. Apple actively refuses to participate or help. Not sure why so many apple simps can’t ever acknowledge that standards are important. It’s likely if you look around you at any given moment, you’ll dozens of vital everyday products that are cheap or possible due to standards. The rest of computing is built heavily on standards. Standards === modern society. Yet apple can do no wrong if they explicitly dodge standards for profit.
Oh great, so then when will apple be releasing their open standard for secure and feature rich texting?
…waits decades…
Oh yeah that’s right, doing so would prevent them from pretending that things jUsT wOrKiNg is only something an apple product is capable of because any other product is obviously garbage.
We all know the reason apple often avoids standards is purely for profit. They do it knowing it is bad for their users. So let’s not pretend that privacy is all they care about. At least google attempted a standard. And yes Google sucks ass. But I have more respect for a company that believes in standards than one whose business model only works because they strategically avoid them
Being obtuse and abrasive for no reason other than to intentionally shit on someone should also be a reddit thing that is limited here. It’s hard to believe an adult capable of finding whatever weird X character that is could somehow miss what that person was doing…
The prime example of a SO user is being intentionally obtuse, demanding more detail even if the typical programmer would have a pretty clear picture of what is being asked. So yeah, projection much?
BoTh SiDeS again. Cheers
Said every troll ever. No shits given
Lmfao!! No problem knowing you voted for trump with that level of pitiable auto-fellatio
The only reason I am fully confident in hating the right wing with a passion is that I spent more than half my life enveloped in those garbage attitudes.
I probably have more experience with the common right winger than a troll like you. Thanks though
The problem is actually that conservatives can’t think a moment outside their own experience. Everyone less powerful than you? Oh they deserve their place. After all, they’re probably cOmMuNiSt anyway
Lol people who disagree with me are all jobless. Yeah dude everyone here totally believes you’re a critical thinker who drives a Mercedes
Probably not as miserable as it is to have to spend all your energy pretending to not see how your political ideas have fully doomed humanity to drive itself extinct
Yeah that’s a whole lot of words for “both sides”. Maybe you’d be happier on Reddit.com/r/conservative
I’ll take this as an upfront admission that apple is not only opposed to standards but actively avoidant of them when it is profitable, rather than the deflection it was meant to be.
You seem knowledgeable enough to know that standards are usually contributed to by corporations and that this has many many times not ruined them. The whole web is built on this fact. But unfortunately your zealotry blinds you to what your priorities ought to be, standards for everyone’s benefit.
