Ich versuche die Funktionen der iOS Geräte zu kategorisieren, aus Nutzersicht. iPhone kommt ja von Telefon, und hat sein Dasein der #Kommunikation zu verdanken. Das ist die wichtigste Kategorie, sie umfasst telefonieren - wo ein Umstieg („de-apple“ oder #unplugtrump) nicht komplex sein dürfte. Dann kommen #iMessage (abgeschaltet, aber da tut‘s schon weh) und #FaceTime (naja) und… #Email (#iCloud alias Apple ID). Anderes ist ursprünglich nicht dem originären Zweck des Geräts zugedacht…

A red telephone box has been repurposed as a defibrillator station, located next to a stone building. The area is surrounded by green grass and hills in the background, with parked cars lining the street.

WhatsApp lässt sich auf iPhones erstmals als Standard festlegen

iPhone-Nutzer erhalten zum ersten Mal die Option, eine Nicht-Apple-App als Standard für Nachrichten und Anrufe zu wählen. Siri will davon nichts wissen.

Signal may be the best, most secure messaging App.

- Open Source End-to-End Encryption ✅
- Non Profit ✅
- No shareholders to answer to? ✅
- PCMag ‘Editor's Choice’ ✅
- Group & Private Messaging ✅
- Multi-platform ✅
- Google & Meta uses their technology ✅

What do you think is the most secure messaging App?

Listen to this “tactical, practical, and heretical discussion between Meredith Whittaker, President of #Signal and leading advocate for secure communication and Guy Kawasaki”

Things that were obvious design mistakes from #Apple:
- #TouchBar (not the technology, but the implementation)
- Removing #MagSafe (people like the convenience of not killing their laptop over tripping cables)
- Re-adding MagSafe (without actually addressing the problem that you need a whole new cable to just deliver power)
- Square alignment of arrow keys (does this even need a comment?)
- Removing the escape key (it's not just nerds)
- #TouchID button that can't visually tell you that it wants your attention (believe it or not, but some people have no effing clue what to do when the TouchID popup pops up)
- The contrast of #DarkMode on #OSX calendars (eternal shit show of trying to read purple text on a slightly darker purple background)
- Everything related to #EmojiPicker (the way it's been buggy for years, the slowness, the non functional fuzzy search, the 3! distinct and horrible ways it works, ...)
- #iMessage as a whole (anyone who is a tiny bit critical can't stand this piece of UX hell)

The European Commission needs to do *better* than this on designating #NIICS. Same reason apparently #gmail has not been designated under the #DMA (which is *not* competition law; but gmail market share is a serious sign something is wrong in market fairness and contestability). And then of course there is the infamous EC acceptance of #Apple’s rebuttal of #iMessage designation 🤬 /cc @mnot

With respect to Microsoft’s NIICS Outlook.com, the Decision accepts Microsoft’s rebuttal and does not list it in the Decision as a CPS that is an important gateway for business users to reach end users. This is for the following reasons: (i) Microsoft has configured and currently provides Outlook.com on open standards that allows business users and end users to effectively exchange messages with other users of Outlook.com, which is further corroborated by the data provided by Microsoft (only a small percentage of messages exchanged on Outlook.com relate to communications where both the sender and the recipient were end users or business users of Outlook.com); and (ii) because Microsoft, in the current configuration of Outlook.com, does not exert any control over the operations of end users or business users of Outlook.com that would enable it to make those end users or business users dependent on Outlook.com to reach each other.
Mamot - Le Mastodon de La Quadrature du Net Nemo_bis 🌈 (@nemobis@mamot.fr)Attached: 1 image @mrchrisadams@mastodon.social Hmm. https://element.io/blog/ems-launches-bridging-for-microsoft-teams/ https://element.io/blog/ems-launches-fully-managed-matrix-bridging-for-whatsapp/ https://matrix.org/blog/2024/09/whatsapp-dma/ Can you use the MS Teams bridge to contact someone who has not opted into it? I suspect the answer is a resounding no at the moment. This *might* be ok if M$ also disabled messaging from "outside" users by default; currently you can get messages from any M$/Azure tenant (which can also be an infosec liability).
