The US-based tech giants have been accused of facilitating misogyny and helping "enforce gender apartheid" for making the app available on Google Play and Apple's App Store. Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and a women's rights activist urged that Apple and Google reconsider hosting the app, Insider reported, adding that the two tech giants did not respond to its requests for comment. Under Saudi law, it is essential for women to have a legal "guardian" who can restrict her travel.

According to some media reports, people familiar with the matter said that Apple has transferred its modem chip engineering business from the supply chain department to its internal hardware technology department. Modem chips are a major part of the cost of Apple devices, worth $15 to $20 each and likely costing Apple $3 billion to $4 billion for the 200 million or so iPhones it makes a year, said Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon. The Cupertino, California-based company has posted job listings for modem engineers in San Diego, a hub for wireless design talent because of Qualcomm's longtime presence there and a place where Apple has said it plans to build up its workforce. All of the modem chips used in Apple devices were supplied by Qualcomm not too long ago, but over the past few years, the company has transitioned to using only Intel modems.

Saturday, 9 February, 2019 - 06:30. So, the latest iPhone isn't selling as well as Apple predicted, and the excuses are plentiful: a strong dollar, weak demand from China, fewer subsidies from mobile networks and "macroeconomic challenges". However, there was one line, slipped it at the end of Tim Cook's flowery list of excuses, that really caught my eye. That's right: because the company admitted it was throttling the performance of older handsets in order to preserve their fading battery life. Or, as others saw it at the time, deliberately crippling older phones so that people would be more tempted to buy a new one. I suspect the truth is somewhere between those two extremes: it makes sense for Apple to put the brakes on battery-sapping tasks to improve battery life, but if that forces a few customers to take a trip to their local Apple Store sooner than they might otherwise, so be it. Yet, the unpleasant truth for Apple is that customers are seeing fewer and fewer reasons to buy new iPhones. Stick a £25 new battery in an iPhone 7 and revitalise its performance, and the idea of paying a grand or more for a new iPhone X suddenly seems as attractive as a timeshare on Tooting Common. How does Apple get itself out of this fix?

It is 30 years ago this year since microchip giant chose to set up its campus in the Kildare town of Leixlip. State officials are crossing their fingers that it will sign up for an expansion of the site worth up to $8 billion (€7 billion). If the decision is made over the next year or so, and if it’s a good one for State enterprise officials, could be in line for a hell of a 21st birthday party. Big bang investment announcements can rebound on the companies involved, and the State, if things go sour. In 2015, announced it would invest €850 million in a data centre in Athenry in Galway, the largest ever investment west of the river Shannon. Yet it soon blew up in everybody’s faces.

Apple Inc's fiscal first-quarter earnings reveal that the company's struggles in China and in its critical iPhone business will continue, while analysts say the tech bellwether could reduce prices to remedy the situation. On Jan 29, Apple said revenue for the three months ended Dec 29 was $84.3 billion, off 5 percent from a year ago. Apple investors have been worried about China since the company last month lowered guidance for the quarter due to economic pressures in the region and weak iPhone sales. "Apple and Cook face one of their most challenging growth periods in the company's history with weak iPhone sales in China being the 'albatross around its neck' showing no signs of abating over the next few quarters, a dynamic that will be an overhang on the stock for the next 6 to 9 months with the China trade talks adding to the agita for investors," Wedbush Securities analysts Daniel Ives and Strecker Backe wrote in a research note.
