Apple has always been rabidly proprietary. Only in europe has any authority been able to force them to put their customers first

fuck the and their proprietary bullshit.

yeah I care as a tech nerd, that's real.

but as someone who wants a planet in 50 years: apple needs to fucking burn. right alongside Exxon.
