By Jonny Evans Have you ever had an unexpected direct phone call from Apple support? I have not, and if you do ever receive one, you probably aren’t talking to Apple. The company says you should immediately hang up. “If you get an unsolicited or suspicious phone call from someone claiming to be from Apple or Apple Support, just hang up,” the company support website states. Don’t fall for itOther things it warns against are suspicious calendar invitations in Mail or Calendar, annoying pop-ups in the browser, unexpected software download prompts, and fraudulent emails.

By Jonny Evans Apple has a lot to prove at WWDC 2024. Not only must it fend off the negative attention it has been picking up from regulators, but it must also galvanize loyal developers and disabuse the industry perception that it has fallen behind on AI. That’s a big sentence for a big collection of big challenges — and while doing all of this, Apple will also be seeking to pepper its platforms with great big dollops of its customary consumer-friendly magic. Strength through adversityApple has pushed through challenging times before, and I understand why executives are likely furious that th...

It even helps us find places to pick up tasty cuisine — like, uh, oatmeal (yum!).

By Jonny Evans The challenge to build a more sustainable enterprise is high on the business agenda these days, in part to meet government-mandated climate goals, in part because consumers demand it, and — perhaps — simply because turning a business into a sustainable business is the right thing to do. Businesses are taking a multitude of approaches to becoming more sustainable. Apple CEO Tim Cook in China explained part of the strategy being followed by his company — to put a little AI (artificial intelligence) in sustAInability.

By Jonny Evans Perhaps seeking to grab the limelight from the Department of Justice’s ludicrously articulated antitrust suit against Apple, the European Commission this morning confirmed it will investigate the company, along with Google, Amazon, and Meta, for noncompliance with the Digital Markets Act. “The Commission suspects that the measures put in place by these gatekeepers fall short of effective compliance of their obligations under the DMA,” the statement says. In a statement today, Apple said: “We’re confident our plan complies with the DMA, and we’ll continue to constructively engage...

By Jonny Evans “I’m telling you there is no merit to this case,” said Mad Money host Jim Cramer in reaction to the Justice Department’s antitrust lawsuit against Apple. Justice officials announced the lawsuit Thursday. Cramer's reaction reflects the opinion of most industry observers who see the weaknesses of the allegations it contains. Apple is facing regulatory action across the world. The EU has already forced the company to make changes that open its platform. But the Department of Justice (DOJ) litigation is far more ambitious and aims at Apple’s control of the ecosystem — it’s an existe...

By Jonny Evans The US Department of Justice (DOJ) and 16 state Attorneys General have filed a sweeping antitrust lawsuit against Apple and its business practices involving the iPhone. Announced during news conference in Washington, D.C. today, the 88-page lawsuit drew quick fire from Apple, which said it “threatens who we are.” The company vowed to “vigorously defend’ itself against the DOJ. Following several years of investigation, the suit cites numerous internal Apple emails, makes numerous arguments about what the company is doing wrong, and demands that Apple’s anti-competitive business p...
