@LaurenGoode @reckless You seem to be doing great and you look like you’re having fun, Lauren. But...taking advice from @reckless? Really? — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the @WSJ and the @NYCSchools for participating in a #NewsLitCamp. It’s a @NewsLitProject program held around the country where we gather journalists at a news organization with educators at a local school system for a day of discussion about news literacy & journalism. — PolitiTweet.org

@reckless Great call. These spineless platforms have to own their cowardice- on the record. — PolitiTweet.org

@MarkVenaTechGuy @Apple I agree, Mark. He’d have moved faster if he hadn’t been so sick in his final years, and died so young. I believe he focused his waning time and energy on a few big things towards the end. And, of course, Tim Cook had to focus on a few big things during his initial years. — PolitiTweet.org

As usual, ⁦@benthompson⁩ has a really smart take on yesterday’s ⁦@Apple⁩ news. He starts with the new Mac Pro, but keep reading. The stuff he thinks is much more important comes later. https://t.co/8DA07XTrCX — PolitiTweet.org

Attn fellow journalists: this reporter is right. We have long been too opaque, IMO. — PolitiTweet.org

@boynamedbharat They have been putting privacy first since the birth of the iPhone. Steve Jobs spoke publicly about it. — PolitiTweet.org

@kylealden @CaseyNewton @JosephPAlbanese Anything that drives a stake into the heart of the privacy theft/surveillance/adtech cartel is good for society and for the future health of online life. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@CaseyNewton @JosephPAlbanese Yep, it may be a risky time. I believe they are going to full out war against the ad tech mafia, step by step. Maybe even aiming to become a single sign-in hub for TV, sites, etc. That would give them power, but, assuming they stick with their privacy approach, not direct money. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@CaseyNewton @JosephPAlbanese I can't see how Apple can make anything mandatory across the web. But the ad tech industry is a toxic spill that has polluted the entire web and app business. It is the cause of the rampant surveillance online. It should be exterminated. (Not ads, but ad tech.) So Im for this. — PolitiTweet.org

“A little-known fact is that whenever [digital audio] vendors tell you how many tracks they support, you're legally required to remind people that the Beatles made all their albums using a 4-track tape machine.” - great @reckless comment in the @verge liveblog of Apple’s #WWDC. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

This @Apple #WWDC is packed with new features people have wanted for years. It’s moving so fast it’s hard to keep up. Even a whole new OS variety - #iPadOS - with many features for the bigger iPad screen and multitasking. Even a full desktop browser. — PolitiTweet.org

@SethHasit You select “Sign in with Apple”. — PolitiTweet.org

Apple has a cool new privacy feature. Instead of logging into sites and apps with privacy-stealing Google or Facebook, Apple will generate a complex one-time email address for each app or site that relays privately back to your real address. They never get your actual email. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@stevesi @tomwarren Totally true. As usual. — PolitiTweet.org
