What is happening with Apple - people used to justify the high cost of Apple devices claiming they paid for the "high quality". But now ... First the "bug" that allowed root access on macOS and now this "bug" that literally allowed anyone to spy on you through your iPhone? Not to speak of iPads / iPhones that bend, ios throttling due to weak batteries etc. etc.

Something is quite wrong ...



I'm no Steve Jobs fan or Apple apologist but it seems obvious enough - Jobs was the force driving the company forward and now the momentum he created is finally starting to wear off. I really hope they can get their shit together sooner or later as they still seem the best of a bad bunch wrt privacy - at least for now.
