Sure. You go right ahead and click the agreements for your iDevices and iSoftware. Do not bother to read it. Apple loves you and would never sell information on you for profit to their "Partners". I bet no matter how hard you look you will never see ... Ohh, wait.

Is this where you could opt out of iAds tracking?

Interesting. I am sure they give away targeted ads to their advertising partners for free though. Because they do not want you to look like a fool.

No. That is the problem. They think that forcing others to do good will make them feel better, but it does not. That is why they are never satisfied. They must always fill that hole. If they would just get off their asses and hand out food at a soup kitchen that hole would be filled and they would feel better and the world would be a better place.

But that is not how the government wants us to be. So entitlements and division are the carrot and stick they use to keep us on the path.

I was pretty sure it could not be explained to you. So I did not.

Others though tried. As I predicted their effort was in vain. Much like a person vested in being a Democrat or a Republican in order to to be ok with your bad decisions you must see all evil in the other guy and all good in your side.

Sad really how the media has turned everyone into a fanboy. (Apple, Android, Liberal, Conservative, Democrat, Republican) All you can really do is hide in your little safe corner where your previous decisions are safe from your own scrutiny.

A device on your wrist with a good sized screen to work with your phone is fairly stupid. I forget the watch company but someone has something close to what I would really want.

A real watch with a single line color display that allows me to control my phone.

Show caller ID allow a button press to answer phone for my bluetooth, hang up, switch lines and beep and display calendar apts and alarms, Just give me a watch that makes me not need to pull out my phone for stupid little stuff. Do not try to give me a large display on my wrist. I have one in my pocket.

You are correct. It is the law. It is not though a right.

Making money, free healthcare, and union benefits are not rights.

The right to speak your opinion without government punishing you, the right to live, and so on are rights. It may be really beneficial to society to give free healthcare. It may not. But it is not a right. Too many of you whiny entitled self important young uns think everything nice is a right that people are owed.

He was right though. Copyright is a government granted right. To encourage production of copyrightable material.

It is not a protected right it is a granted privilege. Rights are protected from being removed by others. Copyright and Patent are granted privileges.

You can call it whatever you want but truth is truth.

Notoriously exploited. Awesome. A group of people that only have to work 9 months out of the year and get every holiday possible. A group of people that in my state after just a few years can not be fired. People that have had massive raises and make 6 figure incomes with retirement packages that are some of the best you can get and have while getting massive amounts of money funneled to them have overseen changing education to the point where you can graduate high school and not be able to read the back of a cereal box. I would love to see these people more than exploited. I want to see them gone.
