We used to call this "Nobody gets fired for picking IBM".
"Shrill TDS rants about anti-abortion boogymen aren't helpful."
Now that the GOP controls all branches of government, I suppose we shall fuck around and find out, eh?
You can backup your iOS device to any PC or Mac, which can then utilize Backblaze, Google Drive or whatever cloud thingy you want to use.

Sounds like the people bringing this suit are wanna be software architects with little imagination.
"I don't see how this is economically feasible"
We're in pre-enshitification of AI. Once one or two dominate the technology, they will start "monetizing" it. Also, the more AI shit you can spout on earnings calls, the more horny wall street gets for your sweet sweet stock.
You could also point out that violent crime is worse in red places.

Union square was pretty much the only "disaster area" that we saw. I've seen just as bad in my home town of Salt Lake City though.
We just spent a week in San Francisco, and our hotel cost was actually reasonable. We were just a block away from the Presido, and had an amazing time all over the bay area. I'm not going to cry because "boutique" hotels can no longer charge $700/night for a studio room with Ikea furniture next to the ferry building.
Heh, same.
Reddit is a special place. It's awful. It's wonderful. It's diverse. It's a hive mind. It's *kind* of like Slashdot, but where they were more "hey, this firehose is WAY more interesting than the main place".
Ahhh, I remember the good old days of Ebay sellers buying their own items to inflate prices.
To be fair, NFTs have had a really shitty 2022. Even that silly yacht club cafe has stopped accepting crypto.
We went out for Chinese food last week. Every single fortune cookie was a "cute" quip about how bad fiat currency is, and how awesome crypto is. The fucking cookies were sponsored by some crytpo company called "FTX".
It's everywhere now.
So much this. When you listen to crypto maxis and they invariable make an argument to the tune of "with NFTs, you actually OWN the asset and it cannot be taken away from you". And they just gloss over the fact that the entire infrastructure (website, database, CDN, hosting, etc.) is just as vulnerable as if you had bought it from a "web 2.0" site.
Regarding your second point, I have my doubts about what this "metaverse" or "web 3.0" endeavor (which so many are yammering on about) even is -- but baking security into a New Thing from the start is a no-duh strategy. Just look at DNS, and the decades of pain because of its lack of security. It's kind of amusing that its even news that Microsoft's security chief thinks the New Thing should have security in it.
Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.
