One year early, so they can make a big deal about proprietary restrictions if you don't use Apple accessories, which won't be the case the following year with no mention.
This is the one iPhone left that they can do anything they want regarding USB-C, without being under the new law as it won't be in place yet and won't apply to product SKU's that were released prior.
You ask for a comment regarding an accusation, this wasn't something to get a comment for, it was the details and evidence itself which is not refutable.
If there was a claim against someone of an event that cannot be shown, you would ask them for their version of events, if the news had a clear video of an irrefutable event they would not require comment for what the video itself would clearly demonstrate.
Steve's video was demonstrable information through explicit evidence, it wasn't something that a comment would have shed light to as the only appropriate comment that could be made be a public response.
The content of the video could not have been changed and given what was demonstrated, it did not serve the viewerbase to wait for the response of the larger platform with greater reach.
Linus Tech Tips has the reach needed to be seen by at least as many viewers with their response.
That's what I'm using, it barely uses more power than a pi & it's a 64bit x86 4core with 16GB Dual Channel, 256GB SSD.
I've seen newer versions of what I have for cheaper than the average Pi4, I would never consider the Raspberry over this solution given how monolithically more powerful it is for how small they are.
I have Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server without a desktop GUI and I control it on my PC via CMD with SSH user@localipaddress
Any video I watch I have to consider if I want to be pushed more of it and delete from history whenever I look at something I don't want more of.
It's an annoying tightrope, I have considered no history but then I wouldn't get more of what I do want. This new change is to make turning off watch history worse, to no longer suggest any videos if you want privacy.
The point of the restriction was to silently remove the apps with excuses that it's just a side effect of other actions.
