  • depends how the loans worked.
    I was assuming his majority shares of X (ex Twitter) collateral.
    And that that he could just go “yeah, go on, collect on your collateral, I don’t mind”, because it’s not worth anything anymore.

    But admittedly I have no Idea how the contracts were drawn up, if this is possible and if his other money would be available to collect on.









  • I consider Apple to be one of the most evil corporations out there, but it appears that my interpretation of “evilness” seema to coincide with size a lot.
    so maybe i just don’t like (stupidly) successfull companies.

    Anyway, I think Apple locks people in their very nice walled garden and in that garden uses a lot of public infrastructure (like open source software, but also other open services on the net), and gives comparatively very little back to the community.

    and they do it, because they think it propably makes slightly more money.

    Which is also the reason I don’t trust their privacy promises at all, since they can’t prove many of them.

    Apple could be an enormous force for good, but to me it feels like they care more about making 0.5% more money to put into their hoard.

    Terrible company, I do believe the world would be better if it vanished.
