Apple chief Tim Cook slammed what he called a wave of “dangerous” laws in several US states that he said promote discrimination and erode equality, in an editorial published Sunday.

Cook — one of the most prominent chief executives to publicly acknowledge his homosexuality — wrote in the Washington Post that so-called “religious freedom” laws passed in several states threaten to undo progress toward greater equality.

"There’s something very dangerous happening in states across the country," Cook wrote in the editorial.

“The very fact that I can open my andoid tablet and actually have a folder/file system would amaze them. I can’t imagine not being able to save files from my computer directly to a folder I can actually create! I can create a custom app and simply save it to my tablet and run it...without consulting Google.”

My wife and I gave each other Android Smart Phones last Christmas and one of my sons’s families gave me a android tablet.

I have been doing what you discussed on my pc using Chrome on my pc and setting up folders and new apps on our Androids phones and tablet since the first week we had our new Androids. I haven’t had to consult Google nor pay them for any new apps. The only really intrusive Google/android program was Google+ which was recommended by some Apple lovering friends, and we cancelled our use of Google+ after about a week.

Tim Cook is a stupid leftist fascist who has no f’ing idea what Jim Crow actually was.

Don’t crush ‘em. Sell them on Ebay. If you want, send the proceeds to a GOP candidate of your choice.

Or use the proceeds towards whatever new phones you get. Waste not, want not. It’s the conservative way.
