So why did these people buy the device in the first place? They knew what they were getting into. Why do they have to break it for the ones who actually wanted it?
No, but it's one of them, and imho a very important one. You recommended I don't use the apps - I recommend you don't use the device. It's not like it's not possible to live without iPhone in Europe.
Why did you buy the device in the first place if it doesn't do what you want? And why do you think you are entitled to force its satisfied users to your ways? Just sell it, make a different choice and let us be happy with what we got.
I don't think it's a pretty good one. It sounds crazy. What do they eat? Where is any evidence of their existence and history? Where do they make their technology? Why is there no heat signature? Why not a single one ever tried to run away and expose them, or just got lost into our world?
Why? Up until now I was entitled to choose a strong platform that forced the developers to play nicely. Now I lost that so indeed as you're saying, not using the app is my only choice.
But that's bad, I want the strong platform back. I left Android just few years ago precisely because I liked the guarantees of the iOS platform - now it's going to be just another shitty privacy nightmare like the hellscape of Android I left.
I don't understand why people can't just buy an Android if that's what they like.
Did you have any issues regarding your timezone? I had some good leads there (and some success too, but always with local people) but the timezone thing killed it every time.
You should try immigrating to one of the EU countries... I tried helping a senior programmer friend. No amount of experience, proof or whatever else could change the government's stance - they don't have an employer so they surely must be looking to exploit the social system - bye.
Please, tell me how to do this. My (SW dev) business so far relies heavily on personal relationships built over long periods of time. I wasn't able to find any other way. I don't have much disposable income for online marketing professionals and ads (I had but it all went to waste).
