    Why do Apple trolls espouse opinions that NOBODY else in the world would
    agree with?

    Why do Apple trolls always fail this simple test of whether someone agrees?
    *Find just One*

    For years, nospam failed the simple "find just one" reputable reference who agrees with him, which is the simple test all Apple trolls instantly fail.
    *Find just One*

    In a recent thread on WPS, the Apple trolls are desperate to claim that
    Apple's insecure WPS system is no big deal and that it's a nothing burger.

    *Yet, the only people on the planet saying that, are the Apple trolls.*

    Nobody else in the world would claim what the Apple trolls claim.

    For example, recently, Chris essentially claimed the Apple WPS security researchers were full of shit, where I simply asked Chris to back up his
    point of view with just one reference to a security researcher who agrees
    with him.

    Why is it the Apple trolls are the only people on the planet who believe
    what they espouse?

    Why can't the Apple trolls *ever* find just one reference backing them up?

    Good question.

    We are always wondering why you - since you are the only Apple Troll here - spout your opinions as facts. Or spout absurd lies as facts. All of which are exposed/debunked by the links that YOU provide.

    Why DO you do that?

    Why do you claim that iPhones can't be used as an SMB server? Not true.

    Why do you claim that iOS is less secure than Android? Not true.

    Why do you claim that "Apple Plead Guilty" to something in France? Not true.

    Why do you claim that "Even if only 1 line of code was changed, Apple sends
    out the ENTIRE iOS as an update"? Never true. iOS, being Unix, is not monolithic.

    Why do you claim that iPhones are less efficient than Android, even though iPhones run longer using smaller batteries than Android phones?

    Why do you claim that iPhone owners are just "following the herd"? If we were "following the herd", we would be using Android phones. The "herd" IS the majority. Not the minority.

    On what basis do you claim to know the education status of the users of ANY product?

    Why do you claim that people can be "tracked" by - of all things - a
    router????

    Why do you claim that people who don't believe all of the above are stupid?

    Of course, WE all know the answer. We are just waiting for you to get a clue. --- Synchronet 3.21a-Linux NewsLink 1.2

    I do not even know what he is claiming.

    This was a couple years ago. His claim was that Apple "plead guilty" in court in France to something. I forget what the specific charge was. Nevermind that COMPANIES don't plead guilty. It would be some person(s) at the company pleading (or being found) guilty of whatever.

    He of course provided a link to the story. Which OF COURSE he did not read. The link clearly stated that France OFFERED TO SETTLE out of court. Apple of course accepted and paid a small fine. When settling out of court, no one is EVER found guilty (let alone PLEAD guilty) of anything because there is no adjudication by the court.

    Needless to say, when the plaintiff (France in this case) offers to settle, it means they know they have no case and are - in fact - just looking for a pay day. So AGAIN, this claim was total bullshit.


    Why do you claim that "Even if only 1 line of code was changed, Apple sends >> out the ENTIRE iOS as an update"? Never true. iOS, being Unix, is not
    monolithic.

    He does not know files can be updated?

    He does not know ANYTHING about iOS/iPadOS. If he had a single iPhone/iPad, he would know that many .1/.1.1/.2.1/.whatever updates can be 50MB/100MB/500MB.
    Full version upgrades are around 5GB or more. OBVIOUSLY, the entire
    iOS/iPadOS is NOT sent for every update. More total bullshit.


    Why do you claim that iPhones are less efficient than Android, even though >> iPhones run longer using smaller batteries than Android phones?

    Good question.

    The main reason Apple trolls can't ever back up their claims about Apple
    can do no wrong, is that nobody but the Apple trolls believes their claim.

    We are always wondering why you - since you are the only Apple Troll here - spout your opinions as facts. Or spout absurd lies as facts. All of which are exposed/debunked by the links that YOU provide.

    Why DO you do that?

    I have always told you Apple trolls I have two goals on this newsgroup.
    Why can't you Apple trolls understand the simplest of concepts?


    Why do you claim that iPhones can't be used as an SMB server? Not true.

    It's not surprising you Apple trolls lack the IQ to figure out what
    happened. You're actually too stupid to understand what was said many
    times.

    1. The fact that iOS apps can use privileged ports was a shock to everyone
    who knows anything about Linux and Android, including me.
    2. The fact you Apple trolls claimed anything it, is meaningless
    because nobody believes a word you Apple trolls ever say.
    3. When I tested it, I was the only one who proved it worked.
    You Apple trolls are so stupid, you didn't even know how to prove it.

    I wrote up a detailed tutorial which, clearly, none of you Apple trolls understood because you're still obviously clueless about how it works.

    Why do you claim that iOS is less secure than Android? Not true.

    Perfect. Now find a single reputable security professional who agrees with
    you. Find just One.

    I repeat: The fact you Apple trolls believe this, without a single
    professional security researcher that backs it up, is the whole point of
    this thread.

    Nobody but you Apple trolls owns this belief system that not a single
    reputable security professional has ever said, nor will they ever say it.


    Why do you claim that "Apple Plead Guilty" to something in France? Not true.

    That statement is, yet again, perfect proof that you Apple trolls are so incredibly of low IQ that you don't know what it means that Apple paid the
    2020 French prosecutor's 25 million euro fine.

    The French consumer watchdog DGCCRF (part of the Ministry of Economy)
    concluded that Apple misled consumers by secretly throttling iPhone
    performance without informing them, which violated French law against
    deceptive commercial practices and planned obsolescence.

    To that most of you Apple trolls say Apple is so rich that Apple can break
    the law any time Apple wants to break the law because you Apple trolls have always said Apple is above the law given how much money Apple has.

    The facts are as follows but this is too complicated for Apple trolls...

    1. The French consumer group Halte a l'obsolescence programmee(HOP) filed a complaint in 2017, stating Apple's actions amounted to planned obsolescence
    by Apple clearly deliberately reducing product lifespan to push upgrades.

    2. The DGCCRF launched a criminal probe in 2018 under France's 2015 law
    banning planned obsolescence.

    3. In February 2020, Apple agreed to pay 25 million euros and publish a
    notice on its French website for one month acknowledging the fine.

    4. This is and was treated as a criminal case under French law, not just an administrative fine. Planned obsolescence is a criminal offense in France, punishable by fines and even imprisonment for company executives.

    Always remember there is no company more sleazy than Apple is.

    In the USA, it's not a criminal fine to fuck your customers like Apple did,
    so Apple got away with paying a half a billion dollar court case penalty.

    No company on earth fucks their loyal customers more than Apple does.
    Who else pays half a billion dollars, for example, for fucking them?

    Why do you claim that "Even if only 1 line of code was changed, Apple sends out the ENTIRE iOS as an update"? Never true. iOS, being Unix, is not monolithic.

    Again, you Apple trolls know absolutely nothing about Apple releases.
    Until RSRs (in iOS 16), changing one character in one line of code
    necessitated an entire monolithic Apple iOS release.

    Only you Apple trolls claim otherwise, as even Apple doesn't back you up.

    Until iOS 16 RSRs, Apple had no concept of a modern patch mechanism.
    <https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201224>
    <https://support.apple.com/en-ph/guide/security/sec87fc038c2/web>

    How backward is that.

    Why do you claim that iPhones are less efficient than Android, even though iPhones run longer using smaller batteries than Android phones?

    The EU proved all iPhones sold up until THIS YEAR were far less efficient
    than Androids in the same category, although the fact remains that only
    Apple couldn't possibly garner an A in efficiency when every Android brand
    sold in the EU had at least 1 model with an A in efficiency.

    Only Apple's efficiency sucked so bad that they didn't have a single model.



    Why do you claim that iPhone owners are just "following the herd"? If we were
    "following the herd", we would be using Android phones. The "herd" IS the majority. Not the minority.

    Every time Apple has a good quarter, you Apple herd animals gloat.
    You'll never see any adult operating system owner do that.

    Only Apple owners gloat over Apple profits.
    People on the adult operating system newsgroups never gloat like you do.


    On what basis do you claim to know the education status of the users of ANY product?

    The very fact you make claims you can't back up shows you own a low IQ.


    Why do you claim that people can be "tracked" by - of all things - a router????

    Because they can, and all security researchers who wrote about it agree.
    Why can't you find a single security researcher who backs your claims?

    Why do you claim that people who don't believe all of the above are stupid?

    Apple trolls claim that a megabitpersecond is the same as a decibel.
    Who is that stupid?

    Only you Apple trolls are that stupid.
    All you Apple trolls have been told your entire lives that you're stupid.

    I'm just repeating what everyone else already knows about you.

    Of course, WE all know the answer. We are just waiting for you to get a clue.

    Heh heh heh...

    Why is it that you Apple trolls can NEVER find even a single reputable professional who backs up any of your claims? (It's due to your low IQ.)

    Everything you spout - only you Apple trolls spout it.
    Nobody who is an adult would say any of what you say.

    It's what makes you Apple trolls, Apple trolls.

    Hell, Apple paid half a billion dollars for the same battery-gate issue in

    released.

    Good question.

    We are always wondering why you - since you are the only Apple Troll here - >>> spout your opinions as facts. Or spout absurd lies as facts. All of which are
    exposed/debunked by the links that YOU provide.

    Why DO you do that?

    Why do you claim that iPhones can't be used as an SMB server? Not true. >>
    As you demonstrated.

    Why do you claim that iOS is less secure than Android? Not true.

    As many have noted and I showed MASSIVE support for in terms of research. >>>
    Why do you claim that "Apple Plead Guilty" to something in France? Not true.

    I do not even know what he is claiming.

    This was a couple years ago. His claim was that Apple "plead guilty" in court in France to something. I forget what the specific charge was. Nevermind that COMPANIES don't plead guilty. It would be some person(s) at the company pleading (or being found) guilty of whatever.

    He of course provided a link to the story. Which OF COURSE he did not read. The link clearly stated that France OFFERED TO SETTLE out of court. Apple of course accepted and paid a small fine. When settling out of court, no one is EVER found guilty (let alone PLEAD guilty) of anything because there is no adjudication by the court.

    Thanks.

    Needless to say, when the plaintiff (France in this case) offers to settle, it
    means they know they have no case and are - in fact - just looking for a pay day. So AGAIN, this claim was total bullshit.

    He twists everything to be anti-Apple.


    Why do you claim that "Even if only 1 line of code was changed, Apple sends >>> out the ENTIRE iOS as an update"? Never true. iOS, being Unix, is not
    monolithic.

    He does not know files can be updated?

    He does not know ANYTHING about iOS/iPadOS. If he had a single iPhone/iPad, he
    would know that many .1/.1.1/.2.1/.whatever updates can be 50MB/100MB/500MB.
    Full version upgrades are around 5GB or more. OBVIOUSLY, the entire iOS/iPadOS is NOT sent for every update. More total bullshit.

    Absolutely. Apple updated individual files as needed.


    Why do you claim that iPhones are less efficient than Android, even though >>> iPhones run longer using smaller batteries than Android phones?

    Why do you claim that iPhone owners are just "following the herd"? If we were
    "following the herd", we would be using Android phones. The "herd" IS the >>> majority. Not the minority.

    Fair.

    On what basis do you claim to know the education status of the users of ANY >>> product?

    Pure emotion.

    Why do you claim that people can be "tracked" by - of all things - a
    router????

    I went to the store today. Turned around and my router was right there!
    Following me. Reporting what isle I was on to BIG BROTHER!

    LOL, yeah man. Because since Big Brother needs to know where you are at all times, your router is obviously the best way to do that.

    My router also edited my text to say "isle" instead of "aisle". They're is
    know chance eye wood make such an err, eye am to well educated.




    Why do you claim that people who don't believe all of the above are stupid? >>>
    Of course, WE all know the answer. We are just waiting for you to get a clue.

    He won't.

    Obviously. He has been posting total bullshit for about 5 years. The very definition of Troll.

    He gets what he wants -- attention.

    It's not surprising you Apple trolls lack the IQ to figure out what
    happened. You're actually too stupid to understand what was said many
    times.

    1. The fact that iOS apps can use privileged ports was a shock to everyone
    who knows anything about Linux and Android, including me.

    Nah, just you. The rest of us knew this was the case. You are the one
    who argued with and insulted every single person who corrected your
    bullshit lie - just like you are doing here.

    2. The fact you Apple trolls claimed anything it, is meaningless
    because nobody believes a word you Apple trolls ever say.

    If it was "meaningless" you wouldn't be so upset that we made your weak
    lie obvious. The FACT is iOS CAN indeed run SMB servers on the default
    port - something you claimed is supposedly impossible. And you HATE facts.

    3. When I tested it, I was the only one who proved it worked.
    You Apple trolls are so stupid, you didn't even know how to prove it.

    Another lie. Lies and schoolyard insults are literally all you have.
    You're fucking pathetic.

    I wrote up a detailed tutorial which, clearly, none of you Apple trolls understood because you're still obviously clueless about how it works.

    Pure projection. 🤣

    You claimed for years, Jolly Roger, that a decibel and a megabitpersecond
    were the same thing, so you have no credibility with the adults here.

    <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/misc.phone.mobile.iphone/PZuec56EWB0>

    You claimed many times many things that you simply fabricated that I
    stopped bothering disproving your claims, much as David Empson did also.

    You recently claimed, for example, that you can "back up" your IPAs on your
    iOS devices WITHOUT going to the App Store to get the latest copy, JR.

    Who is *that* stupid as to make such a claim.
    Only you Apple trolls do that.

    So you "saying" that iOS can do something isn't proving anything.
    In fact, I'm the only one who understood how to prove it.

    Not you low IQ Apple trolls.
    None of you low IQ Apple trolls owns the intelligence to prove anything.


    2. The fact you Apple trolls claimed anything it, is meaningless
    because nobody believes a word you Apple trolls ever say.

    lie obvious. The FACT is iOS CAN indeed run SMB servers on the default
    port - something you claimed is supposedly impossible. And you HATE facts.

    Heh heh heh... And yet I'm the only one who proved it.

    You Apple trolls had no idea how to prove which port it was using.


    3. When I tested it, I was the only one who proved it worked.
    You Apple trolls are so stupid, you didn't even know how to prove it.

    Another lie. Lies and schoolyard insults are literally all you have.
    You're fucking pathetic.

    And yet, the point remains that you Apple trolls can't ever back up your claims, such as the claim that iOS can graph all Wi-Fi access points in the vicinity over time (where you claimed many times that it can be done).

    Look at this Snit video, which proves all you Apple trolls have a low IQ:
    *Snit video purportedly detailing iOS showing Wi-Fi dBm over time*
    <https://youtu.be/7QaABa6DFIo>

    I wrote up a detailed tutorial which, clearly, none of you Apple trolls
    understood because you're still obviously clueless about how it works.

    Pure projection.

    What happened, which you Apple trolls gloat over even as it proves you all
    own a substandard IQ is the following...

    1. You made the claim
    2. Nobody believed your claim
    3. Why not? Because you made many claims that are false.

    Worse, you couldn't even prove that it worked.
    I had to do that for you.

    You're all too stupid to figure out what port it used, for example.

    The point remains that the Apple trolls are strange low IQ people who can
    never back up their claims with actual security researcher references.

    In another thread today, an Apple troll deprecated this tutorial:

    What's revealing the Apple troll who deprecated that tutorial clearly has
    no idea whatsover what Notepad++ is nor any idea of what Notepad++ does.

    Who is *that* opinionated when they're also *that* ignorant?
    Nobody, right?

    But the Apple troll (who didn't understand a single word in the tutorial)
    felt empowered to deprecate the tutorial even as he didn't understand a
    word of that tutorial.

    Who does that?
    More to the point, what kind of rather strange person does that?

    1. Chris knows NOTHING about Notepad++ nor about file conversion.
    2. Yet, Chris called me a "Trump supporter" for that tutorial?

    WTF?

    Everything about these strange Apple trolls is bewildering.
    Who does what Chris just did?

    Is it that he's just stupid?
    Maybe.

    But given he knows absolutely nothing about Notepad++ file conversion, what makes this particular Apple troll so confident in calling it a Trump
    tutorial?

    Where did Trump come from in this Apple troll's mind?
    What does file conversion have to do with Trump anyway?

    I've never met people this stupid in my entire life.

    Given your memory is excellent (™), you should remember I prefer to call

    you have no facts, you only have opinion, you deflect rather then answer,
