I have a 200 watt, bumper...

But enough said....I did not think I would get anywhere with you. You are wedded to your tech. You ignore all the obvious risks for the future of the US and the present in China as it applies to smart phones..

I guess when it happens to you, you will figure it out.

But to close this out, I will say again that I did not come here to this thread to attempt to bash the hell out of I-phones. I can do that, but I’m not.

Frankly, their newest version is much improved over the last, as they could barely make a phone call that did not sound like the caller was in a trash can.

It got so bad, where I was constantly asking the caller to turn off the speaker phone, only to find out it was off, that I quit asking..

But that’s another matter and off topic for this thread, which is about the Chinese and what Apple did to mollify them, albeit temporarily. You can never satisfy their appetite for access. And they will use that data...

There is no question in my mind about that, and the encryption only slows them down, a few days at best. they want very badly to access data and any information they can get from residents and businessmen in HK and Taiwan. Now they have it as one more asset in their intelligence tool box.

Now it’s time to read the inside of my eyelids.
