Apple Sentences All Employees to Lethal Injection, Says They Have “Four Weeks To Comply” With COVID Booster Mandate
(Ethan Huff) Employees at Apple have less than a month to show the company proof of getting “boosted” for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) or else face potential termination. One of the only large corporations to do so thus far, Apple has decided that getting just the first two Fauci Flu shots is no longer enough for workers to stay “protected.” They must also now get the government-approved boosters or else risk losing their livelihoods. An internal email seen by The Verge reveals that both Apple Store employees and corporate employees have “four weeks to comply” once they become eligible for a booster.

Facebook, Google, and Snapchat Are Bypassing Apple’s APP Tracking Transparency and Still Collecting Data on Users
(B.N. Frank) Downloading “free” apps onto devices more often than not allows app providers to collect personal data on users. Of course, companies that manufacture and sell devices tend to collect personal data on users too (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Having access to this data allows companies and providers to analyze users’ habits and preferences so they can market additional products and services to them. They can also sell users’ data to 3rd parties. This practice is sometimes referred to as “Surveillance Capitalism.” As more customers are becoming aware of this, more want to be able to “opt out” of privacy invasive data collection. Companies aren’t necessarily making this easy though. Recently Verizon was exposed for automatically enrolling its customers into a new program that scans users’ browser histories. Facebook, Google, and Snapchat are now also being exposed for continuing to collect data on without users’ knowledge or consent.

The All-Seeing “i”: Apple Just Declared War on Your Privacy
(Edward Snowden) By now you’ve probably heard that Apple plans to push a new and uniquely intrusive surveillance system out to many of the more than one billion iPhones it has sold, which all run the behemoth’s proprietary, take-it-or-leave-it software. This new offensive is tentatively slated to begin with the launch of iOS 15—almost certainly in mid-September—with the devices of its US user-base designated as the initial targets. We’re told that other countries will be spared, but not for long.
