Apple was caught slowing the internet speed on older phones as well. Now they are helping the communists by disabling a phone feature that lets them talk to one another without being on the internet. In prior support Apple gave all user info to the communists. They do not care who is murdered by the communists as long as Apple gets the iPhone made.

Apple was caught slowing the internet speed on older phones as well. Now they are helping the communists by disabling a phone feature that lets them talk to one another without being on the internet. In prior support Apple gave all user info to the communists. They do not care who is murdered by the communists as long as Apple gets the iPhone made.

Uh, no, they weren’t. Apple was throttling the processor speed of those older iPhones under high amperage load, when the batteries in them were chemically depleted to prevent the built-in protective circuitry in the batteries provided by third party maker would force the battery to otherwise shut down the battery completely. This allowed the battery to continue phone operation for several more more hours before recharging and extended the depleted battery’s useful life without overheating. Apple did in fact explain that in the update notes when that functionality was added. Installing a fresh, new battery would restore full, non-throttling functionality to one’s iPhone, something that could be done one’s self for less than $15.

And, no, Apple did not give all user information to the communists. Apple, just like Android phone providers in China had to obey Chines government law which required that ALL users of cloud services on mobile devices in China had their data stored on servers inside the borders of China. Apple was forced to move Chinese Apple iCloud users’ Data from outside China to servers inside China or abrogate millions of contracts. The servers in China are at the Chinese telecom agencies. Apple negotiated that the data remained encrypted and the keys to that encryption remained with Apple China, with user data only being revealed with a proper search warrant issued by a Chinese court, just as it is in the US.

The iPhone feature of talking between phones is again Apple being forced to comply with Chinese laws. All Android devices are required to do the same as well.

Apple can’t just PUSH out an update on its devices that turn off a key feature built into the devices that use WIFI. Are you really so lame as to think the CCP is gonna wait for an updated iOS download to thousands of iPhones,user required acceptance , the restart, across multiple models of iphones, to shut down a demonstration? The actual fact is the Chinese government merely shuts down cellular and WIFI signals in the areas of any demonstrations, crippling that feature anyway.

Again more propaganda repetition from you.
