MacVoices #22033: MacVoices Live! - Everyone Against Apple, Google's VPN, Spotify/Joe Rogan (1)

<p>This MacVoices Live! session starts out with <strong>David Ginsburg, Jim Rea, Jeff Gamet, and Mark Fuccio</strong> discussing the Amicus briefs filed in support of Epic’s position against Apple. Various State’s Attorneys General and Microsoft all piled on. What are the motivations, political or otherwise behind these briefs, and do they really make any difference? The panel digs in, then turns their attention to Google offering VPN services and whether that is a good idea for the user. The episode wraps with the beginnings of a discussion on the Spotify/Joe Rogan controversy.
