#SGGQA 240: Facebook in the EU, Snap is Profitable, Google Demoting Stadia, More Mac Malware

2 years ago

A tough week for Apple. More Mac Malware is being discussed by Microsoft. The Apple Podcasts App review score seems a little off. The EFF is publicly siding with Epic in the court of appeals and suing Apple for monopolistic practices. And, another flaw in iOS software is allowing security teams to crack into phones. Also, Will Facebook leave the EU? Snap is finally profitable. Google is demoting Stadia. And we have to ramble a LITTLE on OnePlus finding more success by ignoring enthusiasts! Let's get our tech week started right!
