    Thanks for the concern everyone. We are still in recovery mode over here and working with YouTube to get everything restored. Will hopefully have a video (or at least an update on WAN Show) to share with you all ASAP, but we want to make sure we get the details right since smaller channels may rely on our experience to help harden their own security.

    Why would LTT be sued? They got hacked ! The scam, wasn't even done in their name. The channel's name was changed to Tesla or what they called it.

    Haven't they tried to get YouTube to do something before? I can't remember if they actually succeeded or not. If Google was ever going to listen, now is the time.

    Can't wait for the far right to start using ?  as a symbol.  Let's see how fast Facebook removes the "like" button from all over the internet then.

    Thank you for summarizing this video, I havent gotten around to watching it.
     
    Apple will deny non Apple Care+ members work however they can, and assume nobody will go back and check if they are right in doing so. I have seen it first hand as well as dealt with it second hand, simply is how they work. I love what apple makes, but I work on their products myself whenever I can to avoid giving them any more money than I must. The only apple product Apple has seen any of my money from is my iPhone XS Max, which I bought from my cell carrier. (Leaving out a 2014 Macbook Air, iPad Mini 4, ~13x iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, 2x iPhone 6, iPhone 6s+, and iPhone 8. Total money spent on all of them is $100 or so...)
     
    I will say, for as much as people complain about Apple, their products are a treat to work on.

    Update :
     
    After Google's announcement that they will temporarily stop listening to recordings made in the EU, Apple has now done the same thing globally and will add an opt-out option via a software update.

    Android is literally made up of those OEMS! You're acting like Android is a single unified force when in reality its a fragmented mess with very little direction!

    Fundamentally incorrect as your assumption is that Google can patch any flaws in its operating system in a reasonable time frame. Which we all know they cannot, meanwhile Apple controls 100% of iOS update deployment. Meaning any vulnerabilities that arise in iOS will always be patched sooner than a similar vulnerability discovered in Android. Not to mention that said patch will always help more people because of how unified iOS deployment is compared to fragmented Android.

    Android literally has no ground to stand on period, meanwhile Apple just updated the iPhone 4s to patch a security vulnerability.....that phone is 8 years old...

    Aka there is only 1 vulnerability that will be patched in less than a week.

    You can download all of your music purchases from iTunes and transfer the files to your future Android phone manually. iTunes songs are not protected by DRM. If you have an Apple Music subscription, you can simply download the Apple Music app for Android. 
     
    Why exactly are you looking to switch platforms?

    There are safety measures in place to cut off power to the battery once it is charged sufficiently, haven't seen a single device that doesn't. Feel free to leave it plugged in until it fully charges.

    People bitch about XR screen so hard because of raw pixel density to a point even I was sceptical about it coming from 1080p screens. Turns out it's all bullshit. Amazing view angles, accurate colors and resolution is so good you need to look at it from 5cm to see that curved edges aren't absolutely perfect smooth. Now, when do you look at it from 5cm distance? I've stopped caring about resolution at this point. Plus it's helpful for battery life and you get more performance in games.

    Best arguments?  It's very colour-accurate and bright, and the 828p screen can actually help out by extending battery life (the iPhone XR is a long-lasting phone in general).  If you didn't mind the DPI of the iPhone 6 through 8, you won't have complaints here. The only reason you might not like it is if screen resolution is a make-or-break factor in your purchase.
