Tech giant Apple has laid off employees from its digital services group, primarily affecting those working on the Apple Books app and Apple News.

The Verge reports that Apple, the tech giant behind the iPhone and many other popular products that have made it one of the world’s most valuable companies, has recently made job cuts across its digital services group, according to a report by Bloomberg. The layoffs, which have aready affected around 100 employees, are said to be part of a “shift in priorities” for the division.

The majority of those laid off were working within the team that runs the Apple Books app and Apple Bookstore, with the remaining cuts being made to some engineering roles and services like Apple News. Despite these job cuts, sources familiar with the matter have stated that the layoffs are not a sign that Apple is shifting its focus away from services like Apple Books, and the app is still expected to receive future updates for new features.

How many "updates" does one need to read a book?

My tablet is an Android device, and I use a legacy version of the Lithium ebook reader app. It works. End of. ("Never change a running sytem" and all its variants STILL APPLY.)

Not looking for purity, just want folks who understand there are consequences to the actions of the Leftist mob. RFK Jr explained MAGA fairly well. We need to convey that message to everyone.

Now, per Nazi Pelosi in the last downturn, before Trump, they’ll have time for crafts and art and more MSNBC.

So why does Trump now say we need more immigration with AI coming????
It seems the GOP is aligned with Kamala- only instead of Taqueiras they are coming for your college degree required job.
He will make the tech worker replacement. of the 90s look like Childs play.
If you depend on your high paying college degree required job to pay the bills- why are you supporting him.

And no doubt all these little pukes voted for Harris.

And they’ll do it again too.
