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.

And it’s right that this is the conversation because Apple needs to learn people want to be in control and these things need to be opt-in. They can build the most sophisticated fancy system to protect your privacy, if it’s sending your stuff to another server it needs to ask for permission full stop.
They (and every other tech company) have been doing this type of thing for nearly 20 years. You might see some whinging about it in some corners of the Internet, like here, but most people don't know or don't give a shit.
It sucks.
