From the article:
“His office began investigating how Google handles user location data after reporting from the Associated Press in 2018 found that many Google apps across iOS and Android recorded location data even when users have chosen privacy options that explicitly say they won’t”
I won’t argue that it didn’t suck st launch, because Apple Maps did. Now depending on where you are at it is just as good or better in getting from A to B. It still lacks in searching for places to go and details on them.
But as for the opt in/opt out? Google pretty much tracked you regardless

I use Apple Maps as it is better integrated with the rest of my apple products and I just don’t trust google with my data. It gets me to where I need to be without issue.
Guess it was that and google not letting apple use Siri with it. Edit: turn by turn direction not Siri.

It was a shame they went with such a terrible name for this. It just gave the other side way more bs talking points.
Hell the Austin Tx police department (union really) is still butt hurt that they even thought about taking away money from them that they are still refusing to respond to most calls.
They only rushed it as google wanted user data and apple didn’t want to give them that. So yes it was rushed, but for all the right reasons.
And yet they still don’t offer high quality audio.
I have a fair bit of home automation setup at home. So if I walk into a room the lights turn on, walk out and they turn off.
Every time I am visiting someone or in a hotel I am deeply confused why the lights don’t turn on themselves.
I did know but actually forgot about that. I already had the text size in my control center. Regardless I will stick with apps that give me that option in the app itself. Memmy and voyager have it and are my gotos.
I should add that I forgot about it as well defined apps have it in their app settings and do t make me go looking for it elsewhere. And I get it. Maybe I’m not the demographic you are after. I wish you well with the app.
Downloaded and like every app I go looking for the option to increase the font size. Sadly like most Lemmy apps this seems to not be high on the list for early releases . Can’t test it if I can barley see the text in the post and comments without squinting.
Hopefully it is high on the list of things to add. Until them it is still Memmy for me.
Jon Stewart already covered this topic in is America (The Audiobook) book.
Listed many movies we killed them in while talking to an alien and summed it up by saying we killed you guy a lot.
Hard disagree. I’m on my phone while on the toilet. In the shower I have nothing but the voices in my head to listen to.
Tasks the Apple Neural Engine Takes Responsibility For
It’s time to dive into just what sort of jobs the Neural Engine takes care of. As previously mentioned, every time you use Face ID to unlock your iPhone or iPad, your device uses the Neural Engine. When you send an animated Memoji message, the Neural Engine is interpreting your facial expressions.
That’s just the beginning, though. Cupertino also employs its Neural Engine to help Siri better understand your voice. In the Photos app, when you search for images of a dog, your iPhone does so with ML (hence the Neural Engine.)
Initially, the Neural Engine was off-limits to third-party developers. It couldn’t be used outside of Apple’s own software. In 2018, though, Cupertino released the CoreML API to developers in iOS 11. That’s when things got interesting.
The CoreML API allowed developers to start taking advantage of the Neural Engine. Today, developers can use CoreML to analyze video or classify images and sounds. It’s even able to analyze and classify objects, actions and drawings.
