Look this must really suck for them but god this is some peak leopard-on-face-action. Like yeah, this is the issue with the apple ecosystem; you're completely at the mercy of one uncaring amoral megacorp. It happening to someone who's shilled so hard for them, for so long, is a perfect demonstration of this concern.
Sure, but this article is about apple, hence talking about apple.
... This is the problem with the apple ecosystem, though? It isn't a problem unique to the apple ecosystem (though apple is the worst about tying features and services into a single ID) but you realize you're doing a whattaboutism in defense of a megacorp right?
The topic here is apple, not google or M$ or samsung or etc, hence why I'm not discussing them. It doesn't devalue the other companies and their contributions to shitty business practices to not bring them up in every discussion about shitty business practices.
