Elon is freaking out, saying Apple doesn¡¯t have a clue what they are doing & he will not allow any of his employees to have an Apple device while at work! Sour grapes as Apple didn¡¯t go with his AI.

?Just. Wow. Evidently Wall Street is excited about Apple¡¯s new AI stuff.
I read one article that said that the distinction this year is that the new AI features will only run on the latest devices. So everyone has a reason why they HAVE to upgrade their phones this year after mildly incremental upgrades the last several years.
That means greater sales this year in Apple¡¯s high-profit hardware categories and Wall Street is clearly PUMPED about that.

Apple uses AWS, Amazon failed to follow Apple¡¯s security guidelines.?
John
Apple alerted Amazon about a potential cloud security risk AWS changed its data-deletion process after Apple flagged a potential security risk. In 2023, Apple found that AWS had failed to delete data from its closed cloud accounts. AWS now has a more robust data-deletion process. There was no unauthorized access to Apple data.

So, follow up to this. I found a workaround of sorts, but still not sure if this is something that changed on the iPhone side or on TikTok?
?
In the Safari Settings on the iPhone there is an option called Request Desktop Website. Mine is off by default so I assume Safari is pulling the mobile versions of websites I visit. If I turn
it on, it looks like Safari goes to Tiktok¡¯s desktop site and everything works as it should. (Turning it on affects all websites, there¡¯s no pick and choose for individual sites.) Turn it back off and the problem pops back up. I compared the URLs in both instances,
and they are slightly different. So, I¡¯m guessing I¡¯m being directed to their mobile site and they are now pushing for the app to be installed even though you are
supposed to be able to watch videos without an account or the app.
?
Like I said, not a fan or heavy user so don¡¯t know the ins and outs, but maybe they are changing things up?
Ok, so let me say upfront that I'm not a fan and I refuse to install their app. That being said, my husband will send me cute little videos from time to time and I will watch them. Until 2 days ago he could send me a message in Apple Messages and if I clicked on the video it would open in Safari. I had to do some little thing like drag a puzzle piece in place and they would always prompt me to sign up for an account, but I could always skip over that and just hit play and the videos would play fine in my browser. This still works if I am on my Mac or iPad and open one from Messages. My iPhone, however, ?will open the video in Safari, but when I try to play it, it opens the App Store and wants me to install their app. I tried clearing my history and website data on my iPhone and no luck. I figured Safari thinks it's supposed to open these links in the App Store instead of the browser. Tonight I tried opening the link in Firefox instead and it presents me with the Tiktok logo and then a link to download from the App Store. Has Tiktok begun forcing iPhone users to download the app to view videos now? I'm on a iPhone 12 Pro running 17.4.1. This isn't earth-shatteringly important, but it is annoying.?

Several months ago I downloaded in Music ¡°King of the Road: A Tribute to Roger Miller.¡± I listened to the album several times. Today when I went to listen to the album the songs were all grayed out and when I clicked on one of them I received this message:
This song is not currently available in your country or region.
It happens in Music on my iMac too except I don¡¯t get the message - the songs just don¡¯t play.
