You guys really are just making rules up as you go, making sure they always fit your narrative. So, if somehow nothing got settled, by your very logic, the so called "incident" wouldn't even happen at all? LOLZ

SShock, 14 Sep 2022Ladies and gentlemen, this is what desperation looks like. ... moreQuestion was "has apple violated anything", it didn't specify when, just if, I answered that, they violated their users trust and lied to them, and guess what, they ended up being sued, quite heavily, which means they broke laws like Google and Meta did here, not same laws, but they still did it, which, you guessed it, was what the question was about.
