apple is not indi*n, but samsung is.

>open factory in 2019 and experience a steady decline in quality control
Samsung operates the worlds largest smartphone factory in ind*a though so stop your absolutely ridiculous attempt at pinning the iPhone as ind*an.

There is nothing implying otherwise. Unless they're paying you there's no need to do damage control on behalf of Apple. If you do PR work demand payment.

>The article says literally it's only effecting those using a Czech keyboard dalit liar
Nobody said it didn't say that. Why are you so mad? It took the trillion dollar corporation you swear undying fealty to months to fix it because their multicultural workforce were too busy sipping matcha lattes and making pride month graphics to notice there's something wrong with their shitty software.

Pic related proves you lied and the article clearly states it's because the student was using a Czech keyboard

>need a new phone since current one died
>figured id shop for phone plans too while i'm at it since i'm on google fi (t-mobile) and the coverage sucks
>google fi is $35-$40/month after taxes

>mint is on t-mobile too so that's out
>verizon and at&t are too expensive ($50/mo + tax + tip)
>visible (verizon) is $25/month but gives no discounts on devices
>cricket (at&t) is $40/month but only has shitty devices (or you can BYOD) and seems to throttle video hard
I guess I'm stuck with Fi?

>>109051188
Well it's not because they played good. If it wasn't for that walking brick named De'Aaron Fox shitting himself out there things would be different.

>>109051251
Cope they won 4-1 and had the best playoffs run in the entire league, you don't know basketball bro you aren't from here and you don't watch sports.

>>109051251
nah playa the spurs lost because wemby is not that good.

>>109050998
yikes!

>>109051293
Wemby was fine. Fox was ass cheeks. Normally big leads getting blown over and over points to the other team catching you when you get winded but they were up in spite of Fox's dismal play. Mf was 3 for 12 and still hogging the ball. That comes down to coaching too but that's another story.

>>109050998
Way to go UK. Please lock up the CEOs of Apple and Google. Nobody will complain. The world may even be a better place and President Trump can achieve his dream of world peace and we'll all live happily ever after in Nirvana.

>>109051471
Wrong, fox isn't the star player. Wemby flopped, Brunson is the finals MVP for a reason. You don't knot basketball. I watched Jordan play at MSG in person. Spurs blew the largest lead in finals history. Just stop. You're such a zoom zoom.

>>109051557
Basically nobody is saying this. Brunson is good no doubt but it ain't like it was 28-3 or some shit.

>>109051577
Bro spurs blew the largest lead in the finals history, with the tallest player in the league and lost 4-1. Cope more. You talk like Fox is the only spurs player on the court lmao foh!

Anyways Knicks won the finals not your Spurs, now back to talking about smartphones.

what's tim apple's endgame?

>>109051867
It is because other countries have similar laws now and they DO require it at the operating system level. They are taking the path of least resistance because implementing this in a million different ways will result in a huge matrix that needs to be tested under different combinations.
>Essentially the most authoritarian state will decide the norm for them all

>>109051883
And yes, in case you were wondering which country that is it is the freedom thumping, flag waving, eagle screeching country.

You can thank Facebook for that.
The UK only wanted online services to have age verification. Facebook went "Hang on a minute, we don't want to deal with that because if we get it wrong we'll be fined. Can this not be done at the device / OS level?" and so they lobbied US states.

No liar the UK wants to scan your entire phone >>109050998

Are foldables still a meme?
I'm looking to get a new phone but with some power as I need to multitask, being able to have probably 2 map apps open and view logs from a Bluetooth serial device. Wondering if something would fit the bill or just get a phone with a bigger screen, though not a massive fan of having a massive regular screen

>>109052551
That's just Europe's Chat control they stole and renamed. It's nothing to do with ID verification at all.

The idea is that the phone will scan for images of child pornography on-device and prevent them from being sent to a pedophile. This is incredibly fucking retarded and really flawed and has the potential to prevent images from being sent to parents or medical staff, etc, but that's the idea.

They think magic on-device AI will stop all the pedos.

This is a screenshot of a web browser. What's that got to do with Android?

Cope harder lying anons. Android has age verifications too it's not just iOS. Imagine being such a horrible low quality lying misinformation poster on the Internet where anyone can check and confirm you're lying kek. I enjoy correcting these liars though. It's just one anon who has been trolling for over a decade >>109050326

Did you use Apple Intelligence to draft your prompt?

>>109052570
>Are foldables still a meme?
foldables will always be plastic, so yes

>>109052970
Cope kid you know you're a liar.

>>109053122
Yes, I'm sure restrictions on video games is the same as locking features of the OS behind ID verification. Keep coping.
It's possible to use Android without ever needing Google Play at all. That could change in the future though:

>>109053141
Incorrect apps In certain countries require age verification regardless if it's iOS or Android slow one. Keep coping dalit.

It's really entertaining how these liars think we will just trust their made up posts on this website of all places too lmao. All the liars are always making things up only about Apple and never android. It's such a cult mentality and very embarrassing tbqh, guess this is the results of allowing Internet access to room temp IQ people.

>>109053226
That "age verification" is your credit card number or DOB though. Pretty much what >>109053246 says.

Video game ratings are not the same as making age verification an integral part of your OS.

>>109053342
Yes, lots of things have age gates. That's nothing to do with the OS you fucktard.

>>109053363
>>109053374
Do you know the difference between an app and an operating system? Because it doesn't appear so. There is no age verification in Android outside of the Play Store.

>>109053391
Parental controls aren't the same thing, retard.

>>109053405
How much rupees does Apple pay you?

>>109053413
Now ask it how the Google Play Store and Google Account affect AOSP usage and where in derivative ROMs you'll find this. Oops! It's not there, because it's not actually an Android operating system feature.

>>109053409
>>109053412
>mentally deranged racist troll is here to derail the thread and call everyone Indi*n while shilling android which makes no sense and because it can't debunk the truth posted
Typical.

>>109053426
>Moving goal posts from android stock to roms no one uses
Typical of your kind. Roms are sir core used on very old phones or mid range SOC devices trying to be relevant.

>>109053442
It's not moving goal posts when the goal post is Android and you come at me with Google Accounts and the Play Store.

Look at how the android fanboy lies in every thread. Imagine living a life like this. Imagine trolling /g/ for over a decade because Apple makes you angry. >>109050326

i don't love racism. or apple. or android. Google should be annihilated. why is everyone shillings for bullshit instead of real alternatives to verified, locked-down corpo spyware?

>>109053469
There are real alternatives based on Android because it's still an open platform. It's the Play Services that are bad. Unfortunately, a LOT of apps depend on it.
