Musk has made it clear that this was never about money. Er, at least not about Xitter making money.

The fact that it's online-only should be reason enough for no one to buy it and continue enabling this anti-consumer behavior. But whatever, no one cares I guess.

And MP3s are perfectly adequate for most applications.

Information is not property unless you create it

I'm genuinely interested in your interpretation of how your personal information can be considered "intellectual property" of a data broker.

...why would you do that?

As I said- you k ow damn well you’d do the exact same thing about it- which is nothing. And collect tons of cash.

No I would make it available to everyone in a fuckin' heartbeat because I'm not a scumbag but maybe that's why I'm not a CEO.

how is iMessage fundamentally any different from texting

Not entirely sure what you're asking but

  • iOS does not allow you to use any other messaging app for SMS. This is surely intentional to lock you into iMessage.

  • If you're messaging iOS --> iOS your "text" messages (SMS) are automatically upgraded to the iMessage protocol, and there are a wide variety of features that are enabled without the user downloading any other apps or switching the protocol. It just happens.
