"Musk Declares War on Apple: Threatens to Ban Devices Over “Creepy Spyware” AI Integration"

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/06/musk-declares-war-apple-threatens-ban-devices-creepy/

"Musk has expressed grave concerns about the potential privacy and security implications of Apple’s partnership with OpenAI. He believes that by handing over user data to OpenAI, Apple is effectively “selling [users] down the river” and has “no clue what’s actually going on” once the data leaves their control."

Apple Computer is putting "AI" into its OPERATING SYSTEMS!!!

They say it right on their site: https://www.apple.com/

WHAT TO DO:

First, spread the word. I had no idea this was happening until I saw this article. You guys are unusually good at that spread-the-word thing.

Don't upgrade the operating system on any Apple device. You are getting way more than you think.

Look at switching to Linux when your current operating system no longer works. The instructions on this are on various places online, and it doesn't look that hard. (Any input on this would be appreciated.)

Most fun of all, contact Apple Computer. Spyware is Super Woke. You know what that means... But they are relatively hard to contact. The chat people are clueless and don't understand English. I suspect the phone people are the same. Plus that's a waste of time, so far down the chain. Here is the phone number for Investor Relations: https://investor.apple.com/contact/default.aspx. AND, the best thing is to contact a bunch of Apple Stores. https://www.apple.com/retail/ The page finds the close ones based on your IP address. If you click on the store, you find the phone number. If you want to call many of them multiple times, I won't stop you.

Their sales are down 4% (https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/05/apple-reports-second-quarter-results/). They seem to be bragging about that. Don't look for logic. But those are rookie numbers!!

Oh, and they are adding spyware right before the election? Must be coincidence, huh?

Many thanks to all of you who keep the rest of us informed. I am happy to do the same for you. Also, it's kinda fun doing a post that ISN'T a shitpost, which is my usual thing. Although that continues to be very fun.

EDIT: If you call an Apple Store, they will ask for a name. Probably not worth arguing about. Just make one up, and screw up their database.
