> they’re not heavily in advertising... yet haha, remember iAd? That failed quickly.
Didn’t it fail because they used non targeted ads? But those aren’t as effective, so no one used them.
Why aren't they as effective? Contextual ads is what made Google big in the first place, and intuitively it makes sense why they would be the best. It's really weird that personalized ads work well! Makes no sense. Everyone hates how they get ads for stuff they already just bought and so on.
Watch “The Social Dilemma” on Netflix, see how far off the rails the industry has gone, then come back and tell me that Apple is the bad guy here. Someone needs to start standing up for what’s right, and Apple is probably the only one with the size and cash reserves to be able to do it. For all the free market cheerleaders, remember this: we already have laws in place preventing or regulating businesses from engaging…
Calling apple to be a social justice warrior is the most ironic thing I heard for a while. We are speaking about the company who actively encourages developers to go to subscription model no matter what the app does, the company, which does everything in order to make businesses unable to fix their devices, so stop their give competition for their outrageous repair prices and methods, the one who do everything to monopolize cash transfer for their sweet 30% cut for literally everything, the one who is using exactly the some components for a new model of a laptop, while they already have internal documentation about said component to be often failing in a short time. So LOL
