Good point Entrope. Except...During the most recent housing crisis people lost their property, lost their savings, emptied their retirement account in order to move and find an appropriate place to live.
How many of the bankers and 'financial consultants' went to prison let alone had charges placed against them?
"Zecher said that allowing device owners or independent repair professionals to service smart home devices and connected appliances could expose consumer data to hackers or identity thieves"
How is it any different than Best Buy dumping people's computer and phone contents onto their own systems?
Why didn't they go to Congress and yell, "They can't be trusted to repair stuff anymore!"
I totally agree with you. And there's another little tidbit no one is considering...
President Trump: If you want to use our network you'll have to put backdoors into your software. That way when we let our 'allies' use the technology we can make sure it's in our best interest...And if a few Americans are watched at the same time, that's okay. National Security. That's all the explanation we have to give.
And a big off-topic side note...
When former President Bush Jr. gave his big TV speech he told Saddam Hussein to leave the oil fields alone. "They belong to the people of Iraq." A reporter actually asked, "Then why aren't the U.S. oil fields nationalized?"
His reply, "That would make us Communists."
Hey! I just made this thread a connection between Trump and Russia. Hmmmm.....;)
1) Does this police department get to keep confiscated property if the person is found guilty? You know, like certain police departments whose budget relies on doing just that.
2) Was it really 300 phones? Or was it 250 phones and someone added an extra 50 to the insurance claim? This could explain how actual sold phones were mysteriously added to the list.
I didn't mean to imply Apple was at fault. Merely stating that there are instances where you're more or less forced to update. I'm one of those people who think if it's not broke, don't fix it. So I rarely update any OS unless it's absolutely necessary.
Yes, but we are stating that something was ALSO added to iOS10 that gave us battery issues. Which we questioned long before iOS11 was even released. Which was continually ignored and no comment from Apple was ever given to why the problem occurred. Again, well documented on several support forums including Apple Support.
Which makes us wonder whether we weren't the actual beta testers for this iOS11 code. And they just didn't remove it since the 5's were going to be orphaned anyway.
As I already responded to the OP's comment...iPhone 5/5c users, like myself, have had the same issues after switching to iOS10 and all the subsequent updates. These issues were brought up in Apple's own forums and we were never given a reason or solution to why it was happening. Yet now the iPhone 6's owners get compensation but we don't? Especially with months worth of traceable comments and complaints.

And let me guess, these will be the states that already let businesses just have a mailbox. You know, so they don't have to pay business taxes.
Which states are those?
And I forget, are they red or blue? ;)

For decades a 'Flick' was one page of a flip book. So if you wanted to have so many pages per second you counted the number of Flicks.

"1. You are free to run whatever version of iOS you want to LEAVE on your Device (there actually are NO "Forced Upgrades")."
Until your bank says, "We long longer support your iOS. You have a month to update or else we're cutting you off."
Which is the only reason why I updated my 5c from 8.xx to 10.3.3. And have continually regretted it.
...if it offers you cake.
