Who enunciate Apple does n’t heed ? Who says it does n’t change its thinker ? Who says it can read to do the right thing ?
Was it Gary ? Dang it , Gary . We talk about this .
Despite the company ’s repute to the opposite , Apple vary course not once buttwicein the last hebdomad . intend that it has fulfilled its changing - its - mind quota for the current 12 month . Do not look for Apple to change its thinker again until November 2024 .
Yes , surprising many last workweek , Apple announced out of the blue ( house of cards ) that it would beimplementing RCS electronic messaging in Messages next year . Before you require , RCS content bubbles will be green , just like SMS and MMS messages . Your dreams of a rainbow conglutination of house of cards will have to hold off for another twenty-four hours .
But that was n’t the only thing the company did .
“ orchard apple tree to pause advertising on cristal after Musk backs anti-semitic mail ”
After whatever Faustian deal Tim Cook strike in his meeting with Elon Muska twelvemonth ago , Apple had continued to advertise on Musk ’s home for the criminally flagrant , having its advertizement placed next to fine products like monkey wax and disposable pant . Musk ’s former bon mots induce an outcry from many corners , include a brief e-mail - writing military campaign directed at Cook .
The Macalope is just go to say it : Elon Musk is a bad person . The horny one knows a lot of people really do n’t want to trust that , but it ’s true .
“ But he does the quad material ! possibly he ’s just complicated . ”
IDG
No , he ’s not complicated . He ’s just awful . count , the Macalope have a go at it space . It ’s his second preferred place after Earth . But even Musk ’s space business is quite bad !
“ A SpaceX Worker Died and They go along It a private ”
See , he ’s not antisemitic , he just happens to like and voice agreement with posts thatareantisemitic . Okay ? Understand now ? So simple .
It is good that Apple modify its judgment on these two issues . But have ’s not clap the ship’s company on the back too hard . Or , really , at all .
Both of these course of action corrections came way later than they should have and only happened because of insistency . Upcoming EU lawmaking was potential what caused Apple to at long last perpetrate to RCS . RCS is n’t gross , of course of instruction , but now that Apple ’s on board , it say it ’s going to lick to have end - to - end encryption included in the standard . That ’s a win for everyone .
It could have done that originally .
Apple ’s pullback from advertising on Musk ’s vacation spot for petulant incels only came afterIBM pulled ads . When you ’re flap by the society thatsold technology to the Nazis during World War IIand then only call it a “ pause ” to advertizing , you do n’t really merit a lot of accolade for finally doing the right thing . This foetor of putting a detainment on ads until matter botch up over .
The Macalope is n’t certain how anti-Semitism “ blows over ” , specially when the person committing the antisemitism insists he ’s not . It ’s going to be a real disappointment if Apple restfully starts ads up again in a few weeks without anything at all having fundamentally deepen .
in the end we can say Apple did the right thing in both these instances . We can also involve the company to do better .
