      Most people are totally lost in a sea of capitalistic greed and wealth indicators. If you don’t keep up with the Joneses, are you really alive?

      What % of mobile users plug their phones into a computer to move files on/off them? I’m not even an iPhone user (I have a Pixel 6 Pro) and it’s probably been 5+ years since I last moved files over USB on my phone.

          I’m guessing it saves them a few cents. I just don’t think most customers care so I can see why they’d want to save a little bit of money.

          What are you transferring? Do you really think others are? Most people just use Google Photos or equivalent for photo back up and YouTube Music/Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon Music/etc.

      They have convinced themselves it tastes better than a club sandwich.

      It never had to make sense.

      Ads campaigns apple spends billions in, such has having their brand name on top of every community to boost their popularity and overshadow competitors

      I haven’t transferred data over a usb cable in at least a decade. This means nothing to me.

      it’s an identity. you might be surprised to see how often the apple logo is used on random things in countries where copyright doesn’t exist. like it’s a symbol of something really important.

      but I think the USB 2.0 thing is completely normal and this is a misleading headline
