A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

My rephrasing makes no such assumptions. It is a general statement, and as someone who works in digital forensics, it's one I stand by. Anyone who cares about their privacy or security will run screaming from the Apple ecosystem.
You replied directly to someone who was asking for an iPhone app. To make the conclusion that they may be an iPhone user is not a huge leap of logic.
It's not about whether the statement is true or not, it's about treating another user in a hostile way. It's about how your comment is likely to be perceived by the person on the other side of the screen.
For the record, I thought the checkbox for removing content would only apply to the comment I was attempting to remove and apply the ban for. I wanted to leave it all up, but don't really have the ability to revert.
Anyhow, fixing the ban so it's sitewide for 3 days.
