>what is your excuse for not owning a mac?
i don't live in California or Jew York city.

I'm not retarded

you sure about that?

I'm not a terrorist or a faggot

>no Apple device below $200

>>still has not yielded to government pressure
guess they didn't pay enough

protects my shit to the death
>hasnt read wikileaks
"we can provide metadata and all dorts of things..."


fuck off

pretty sure

sure buddy enjoy your failing PC ;)

"I am broke" the post. If it is a superior product who gives a fuck.

>hackers
>being humble and truthful

Choose one

I don't suck dick

because as soon as they find out that you're a white male they will throw you to the sharks

Fuck Apple. I used Macs extensively for both audio and graphic design going back decades. No clean upgrade path on my powerbook, even though it could run their shitty OSX version. Forced redundancy, it is only worth fucking around with to get linux installed on it. I will NEVER purchase another Apple product.

>gives the government a backdoor to all their products
>raises hell in defiance against government intrusion requests

They're playing both ends ya dummy.

Tbh I could build a far superior product for under half the price.

close sourced argument

Explain

Because I'd rather keep my USB ports fuck head

>uses information handed freely to them
>actually never exposes a source
apple can learn from them faggit

WHO is that pls?

News flash! They can already get into any phone they just want the master key.

Apple knows that it will give away something massively valuable because someone in the feds will sell it on the black market and then all their phones are compremised. They run on having an image of being secure devices. Once they release their keys it will be a countdown before its made public. Its about mobey.

Why is it so easy to dupe Apple fans?

Because they sell them (fake) moral superiority.

mfw no one likes me because I want tissue from my thigh to be grafted into a penis and surgically applied to by groin but I also just want to be in a sorority.

Unfortunately this is probably the case. Find it pretty hard to believe that some 3rd party found and came forward with an exploit allowing the government access to that dude's smartphone. Just sounded like Apple trying to save face.

Do have a massive amount of respect for them telling the govt to pound sand and trying to hard to protect users privacy, but once it turned into such a huge shitstorm, I'm sure the feds didn't really give them much of a choice.

Linux/BSD > MacOS > Windows

Open Source/Open License or not using it. Linux and other open source/open license operating systems are at least trying not to be evil corps like Apple and Microsoft.

God damn she is thiccccc

I'm not a faggot.

Nor am I stupid enough to fall for the official story that Apple protects customers shit.

because I hate dongles and daisy chains

This is what my friend who builds PC's says, that though macs work really well because of the software, their hardware is not nearly worth what the computer is worth

So my question is why dont people build Macs like they do PC's?

I heard now that if you update to new software then your mac will slow down, but if you dont update it will stay usable for a long time

Only reason they wouldn't cave is because they knew it was possible to crack the phone without their help.

God, this fucking planet needs a purge fucking yesterday.

I would love to explore her secure enclave

Because you'll be using older hardware since there's no third party driver support. Want latest generation graphics card? Tough shit, Applel doesn't make any computers with them so you're stuck on last gen.

>wikileaks
>not fake news
Fuck off kike

If you want secure you would build your own linux pc

YEAH OK FAGGOT

...

lack of innovation since stevejobs.pdf died

from the NSA btw, they have such a great sense of humor xD!!

Not a mac but this iPhone commercial was so tempting I had to buy one
youtube.com/watch?v=pszeVW3_nbE

It only became fake news about november/december last year, when assange was disconnected.

p.s. hillary is a crook and should be in prison :^)

Why should I pay 1k dollarinos for a shitty mid class notebook without a functional/practical operating system ?
You are basically paying for a fucking apple symbol on it.
It's humanitys ultimative scam second only to the concept of modern currency.

kekk

Damn girl, you have a name or could I call you mine?

Dont forget planned obsolescence. Its hilarious when the geniuses tell you how you should just get a newer model

but why tho? probably just for money, but why wouldn't they at least make it possible to use the latest parts in their computers??

This always bothers me because gaming is laughably shit on the mac, I still get by with some great games, but I know if I had a pc I would be 1000x better off.

You can't. Apple hardware is proprietary.

You can just install osx on any computer?
Diver support for graphics cards is not so easy, would you be able to use the linux drivers?

I own and use apple products exclusively my good sir

apple wouldn't release files from the san bernardino "workplace violence" incident, but was more than happy to rat out the guy from KAT, letting him be extradited to the US although he has never spent a day of his life in america

yeah, apple is just great for privacy

rate my new apple watch :)

That's why no matter the cost I only use Apple computers.
Fuck Winblows and Lincucks.
Apple ftw

I have an ipod. Does that count?

>$5000 mac to do what a $800 pc can do

it's a shitty over priced and inferior product

I got one of the first phones running android and it was total shit. Has that changed? I'm sick of apple

They may not give your info the FBI, but they have their fanbase by the nuts.

>cant reply with evidence
>this mans vagina gets hurt and resorts to name calling
you sure showed me
please kill yourself

I don't 100% understand what you are saying, so the NSA said that about apple products?

I remember when they came out with the screen side camera and anons would always talk about how there was something different with people who got the camera on the screen side, because now any time you are using the phone there is a camera pointed at your face

nobody notices anymore though

Who'd you steal it off?

>he believes this kek

Steve Jobs didn't meet with Trump. I don't care if the fuckers dead, that's no excuse.

I rate it 180 over 120

>why wouldn't they
Because they like all the money harvested from their closed, walled off garden more than they like your freedom.

>You can just install osx on any computer?
No. Go search for Hackintosh if you want a comprehensive list of hardware that will work.
>would you be able to use the linux drivers?
No. OSX is part BSD, part whatever they were working on over at NeXT. Unixlike, not Linux, not Unix, not FreeBSD, not OpenBSD.

Also people who try and sell Hackintoshes faces litigation from Applel.

All my furry porn is encrypted using AES7600 and I'm using a randomly generated 122-character password.
Also I'm behind 7 proxies. The CIA will never have my porn and my grandmother's recipes.

Seriously though, unless you're a criminal or doing illegal shit, you shouldn't give a fuck. Nobody gives a fuck about your shitty life.

That's a 250 over 130 at least.

post bunda

nice

Because I fucking hate apple products. They're designed for normies that don't want to customize anything and they're restrictive as all fucking hell. No thank you.

9to5mac.com/2016/07/21/kickasstorrents-apple-id/

Oh i didnt even know, i thought once they moved away from powerpc in 06 you could just buy the os.
Thanks for the info

This is a troll thread, right?
>objectively worse hardware
>allows gov. transgression while making a fuss about public demands for access
And lots more, but honestly I just cannot be fucking bothered to convince someone who is likely just trolling.

I'll explain it like you're a retard .
Macs are a sweet sports car.
Nice but shortsighted hardware, and flashy enough to show off your wealth.
PCs are everything from a tiny beater car to an aircraft carrier. You get what you make.
But I know my rig could simulate 10 of the best Macs available inside itself. My PC eats macs for sustenance.

Stop being a fag. You're like a moronic Italian stereotype bragging about his car, only he's talking to a room full of farmers and admirals. The farmers don't care because it can't pull a plow, and the admirals can't figure out why you'd brag about a ride that doesn't carry jets.

i have a mac and some dell shit that runs w7 they're like the same

i keep all my cp on my mac ;)

That I enjoy an OS not designed for fucking 6 year olds.

they are slides from the NSA

they are arrogant fucks who give no shits

>In exploiting the smartphone, the intelligence agency takes advantage of the carefree approach many users take to the device. According to one NSA presentation, smartphone users demonstrate "nomophobia," or "no mobile phobia." The only thing many users worry about is losing reception. A detailed NSA presentation titled, "Does your target have a smartphone?" shows how extensive the surveillance methods against users of Apple's popular iPhone already are.

>In three consecutive transparencies, the authors of the presentation draw a comparison with "1984," George Orwell's classic novel about a surveillance state, revealing the agency's current view of smartphones and their users. "Who knew in 1984 that this would be Big Brother …" the authors ask, in reference to a photo of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. And commenting on photos of enthusiastic Apple customers and iPhone users, the NSA writes: "… and the zombies would be paying customers?"

>In fact, given the targets it defines, the NSA can select a broad spectrum of user data from Apple's most lucrative product, at least if one is to believe the agency's account.

>The results the intelligence agency documents on the basis of several examples are impressive. They include an image of the son of a former defense secretary with his arm around a young woman, a photo he took with his iPhone. A series of images depicts young men and women in crisis zones, including an armed man in the mountains of Afghanistan, an Afghan with friends and a suspect in Thailand.


tl;dr OP IS A BLUEPILLED FAGGOT

The dude should have known that everything is bugged. They watch everything and everyone.

Go home Podesta, you're drunk.

>apple protects your data
>third parties can monitor what porn apple users watch

this f a m.

If your not into creating videos or photoshopping, i don't see a point owning one...

I only ever see cucks women idiots and non-whites using apple products

If you are one of those then get the hell of of Sup Forums

isn't apple coming out with a new phone that has a "encryption switch" that allows you to encrypt anything you do on it?

I know there is another phone like that but still i am skeptical about all that "hiding on the internet" stuff, I think they will find you if you want

>just take a selfie nothing will happen xD!

>OP
>is naive enough to believe that most big US internet companies aren't in bed with three letter agencies and that the "Apple fighting FBI" is not a spectacle for the plebs

Wikileaks proved that Apple is in collusion w/ the government, despite their "public stance."

>implying i don't run dual partiition
>implying i don't have cheap-o 99$ disposable netbooks for garbage tier shit like browsing Sup Forums
>im-fucking-plying anything

That farmers and admirals comparison is the most tear-elicitingly deft turn of phrase I have read in years.

nah that's just propaganda

this is more what you're looking for but even this is probably compromised

>charge customers $700 for a phone
>take their money, tell them they still don't own the phone though
>severely limit what the customer can do with that device because Apple being Applehitler

I don't own anything made by Apple because every bit of hardware that Apple has ever made is inferior and yet more expensive in comparison to some hardware that pre-existed it, and because every bit of software that Apple has ever made is inferior, bloated, and inefficient in comparison to some software that pre-existed it.

Also, Apple is the fascist Hitlerian regime of computing hardware and software with their obsession to control and contain its users in every and any way they can. Hopefully, Apple goes the way of the Third Reich. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

>Apple
>protects your shit against the FBI to the death
>still has not yielded to government pressure

That's because they got caught when the NSA leak happen, you fuckin' Re-Re. They didn't outright agree to the government's demands the second time because the first time they got caught doing it and it caused them a lot of profits.

They didn't do it out of respect for their customers, they did it out of fear of getting burned again, fucktard.

Tim Cook is a faggot.

Apple is cancer.

Trump's new policies are going to force Apple to rewrite their entire business strategy.

I'd say anyone who owns Apple stock right now should sell it quickly, the company has hit it's peak in this era and unless they have some sort of massive tech innovations to unveil (highly unlikely) then the company is going to take a huge hit.

Companies like Amazon and Apple both heavily rely on the current situation with China, cheap slave labor, zero import tax, low wage U.S. distribution labor and highly marked up products bought from china at a very low price.

OP you may want to look into the snowden files

tl;dr they don't resist shit

It IS kinda based.

Initially I argued it was impossible to game on a mac but now that's wrong too so there's really no reason.

As someone who works with Apple all day and on their products all day I can tell you one thing,
They are definitely NOT worth it at all. Waste of money, and their "good customer service" is just basic decent customer service from a shitty company so it looks good.

The nsa has chip level, os level, internet hardware level, virus level backdoors anyway. If you assume anything is secure youre wrong. The only minor solace is in pure volume of data

dennismichaellynch.com/new-wikileaks-reveal-apple-colluding-govt/

Apple was a founding member of PRISM. This idea they don't give up information is simply to make themselves look good, and corral people who want to hide shit to get iPhones. It's an open book already.

I actually agree that Apple is about to slide, and my evidence is twofold.
1. Iphone is petering out. No new real innovation is going on there, and android has caught up in quality.
2. They've just spent a shitload of money building a giant 18000 employee campus. As a silicon valley dweller and worker for the last three decades I can tell you the bay is littered with companies who built giant campuses as monuments to themselves and then death spiraled shortly after. It leads to gross corporate bloating.
