Whether they directly pass the costs or indirectly, these are still costs made by the seller. In other words either the costs are passed on by the credit card customers or simply all customers. Somebody has to pay for the costs and in the end the seller has to make some profit to survive.

Like Twitch you mean? I think that has been blocked as well. And other addblockers can even skip adds within yt videos

Xitter may have taken in more loans after Elon’s take over. But a company can’t borrow money to buy itself. So yea his assets are very much on the line. I wonder what deal he struck with the Saudi lenders.

Wasn’t even needed. Just downloaded the app with another downloaded app and then installed it. Then it props you what launcher you want. Plenty of videos on yt about this.

Fair enough, do you have some examples you know off to feed my curiosity on this topic? If not I understand if you want to hide the negative feelings in a deep part of your brain.

Ooh no that’s a fair point. Some mistrust is definitely justified until proven differently due to the high potential in conflict of interest.

I don’t get it mate, you had me at your first comment because it seemed fairly written. But lose me at the following 2.

Though that is fruit for thought I can not find any information to back op that claim. I did however found articles about them defending remote working. It’s a bit too easy to me to throw out claims such as this without backing it up with facts. But if you do have any other examples I would love to read them.

Fair point.

Not if they use that money to subsidise American EV’s.

I’m annoyed by the caps but you had me at the first paragraph

Only I think they’re already opening factories in Mexico. Which again isn’t a terrible situation either.

I am also wondering where that amount comes from. Though I do not think it should be based on profit. A company can also be unprofitable on purpose in a region in order to destroy the competition an gain market share. Then after conquering the market they increase the prices again.

In this case I suppose it also be difficult to quantify the fine. Of course the duration of the anti-competitive behaviour should also be taken into consideration and apples low willingness to better itself. Is there any article explaining the 500m euro?

Wouldn’t it also be able to crack it in the future as long as it’s accurate enough? As long as it’s able to accurately recognise what key is which it can crack it like the enigma code.
