A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

A far cry from what Google is trying to do or their long term plans (we all know Google is trying to siphon more ad revenue).
Google’s proposition is as bad for Apple as it is for the rest of us.
Honest to god doublethink right here.
