  • I call bullshit on this one. France takes issue with Apple implementing App Tracking Transparency because it hurts advertisers? What exactly does France think following the law looks like? Allowing advertisers to track you by default? What Apple has done with ATT isn’t all that different from what the EU has required every damn website on the internet to do… ask permission to track.

    More damning, in the ruling the court did not outline any specific way the software should change. This honestly just seems like a money grab on the part of France.

    What principles is France and the EU after? Because this ruling makes it seem like it has no principles aside from “find any reason to issue a fine because the defendant is a big American company.”

    I tend to agree with tightening regulations on tech, but there should at least be clear rules that can be followed, not arbitrary rules defined after the fact, if they’re defined at all.

    In reality, you would have needed to own these rental properties for decades to have enough cash flow in them to make you enough to live on AND pay for their mortgages, maintenance, insurance, taxes, and property management. Even if you do manage to get a rental property, it will likely initially lose money. These people are likely selling something else, which is the dream of that life. So, they want you to buy their course or something. These people are all the same. “Let me show you how I make X passive income, by selling courses about making passive income.”
