       Fuck, no, Apple. I was forced to update to iOS 26 due to lack of security updates for 18 on devices that can run 26 (i.e., due to extortion) but you’re not giving my Mac Liquid Ass.Notice the dark pattern of pestering you in hopes you will accidentally hit the install button even though you’ve specifically turned off auto updates. Microsoft-level disrespect for consent here.(Not surprising from a company that gives golden awards to fascists.)#Apple #LiquidAss #darkPatterns #macOS26 #iOS26

       @aral As you always say, you can't trust a corporation.

       @aral I saw this recently. And the OS reset updates to automatic, which I immediately reversed. Fuck Apple.

       @aral I followed this guide: https://mstdn.social/@rgriff/115911291324085543 and added some more security features from cis benchmarks.I do hope I will get a new company windows machine really, really soon. Win is bad, also, but at least I could install a posix compliant linux using wsl2.... ^^

       @aral Violation of the ePrivacy directive? Storing "data" on a device without valid consent.

       @aral I updated the MacOS I use for work to 26.2 last weekend. I cannot say anything about performance yet, but it is really ugly this glass thing...And yeah, some of the settings went back to default.

       @aral I’ve had it with Apple. No more iPhones for me.
