Put the world's eyes, prominent among the technology company? Microsoft? Google? Is Google? No, not is Apple. When in May this year, Apple's market value more than Microsoft, the world's largest technology company. This is one of the last century is still at the edge of bankruptcy 90 years for companies that milestone. iPod, iPhone, MacBook iPad With the continued release of Apple's revolutionary consumer electronics products, including the iPod player, iPhone mobile phone, MacBook notebook and iPad tablet PCs, and its shares rose in 10 years, 10 times. Apple of scenery, a time without the two.
However, just at this time, fame Apple has suffered a severe warning. U.S. Congress Library announced , people in six cases, as long as no copyright infringement for the purpose of bypassing technical controls, the relevant law is not subject to the prohibition, will Cheng Wei Millennium Copyright Law for the exception. In
this six, the particular concern is the second Lei which it was solely to enhance handset itself existing application interaction, Zeng
Qiang Gong Nenger around its use Jishukongzhi that will not be legal regulation, iphone to be included, according to the decree, bypassing Apple's technical limitations, and downloads are not Apple approved software will be considered legitimate acts. At first sight, the U.S. government seems nothing in this provision.
For example, users who did so then what good is it? iphone Benefits do not seem large, because Apple has claimed that this violation of the warranty agreement, resulting in instability and insecurity iphone, users do while not violating copyright law, but Apple could be agreed upon as the act does not fulfill its warranty obligations, Apple Users can purchase agreement, a statement such as the "escape" the user does not fulfill the warranty obligations. If Apple does not fulfill the warranty obligations, then buy such an expensive phone for users who will be more losses.
But things do not look so simple. Apple was able to be Apple, could become the darling of the capital market, in addition to its impressive five-body cast to the innovations, but also its value within a cycle chain, or a closed system of consumption. The new U.S. government requirements to prove safety is Apple's most serious criticisms of the place - not open. Perhaps the U.S. government's intention is not to fight against Apple does not open, Apple may think that this provision does not affect the fundamental, perhaps Apple fans that only a long-existing legitimize only, but the truth is not so simple.
Apple's vision is to want to draw users to their slavery in the kingdom of good boundaries. In the limit, you have unlimited free, you have a wonderful life. Once the cross, then sorry. However, the fanatical people may completely forget the old saying: "Success Xiao He, Xiao He also defeated." The value system is not open, is an important source of Apple's money-making. However, this does not open, may also become the ultimate
decline of the vital. Person or thing, ebb turning point, when looked back, and not how vigorous, often only a small inconspicuous. Hopefully, this new requirement, not a turning point for Apple. I hope.
