In my post yesterday about the iPhone unveiling on that date in 2007, I said it was the 13th anniversary of the occasion. I was wrong. It was the 14th anniversary, as @tfadell and a number of others pointed out. Sorry for the math error. — PolitiTweet.org

@rfischmann @tfadell Right. I screwed up. — PolitiTweet.org

@tfadell Hi, Tony. Years from a date and anniversaries are counted differently, because you start counting anniversaries after the first year. The first *anniversary* was Jan., 2008, not Jan., 2007. That’s why Jan., 2020, is the 13th, not 14th, anniversary. — PolitiTweet.org

Typically fascinating @stevesi thread on what the tech world was like when the iPhone was unveiled on this date in 2007, and how it changed @Apple and the industry. 👇👇👇 — PolitiTweet.org

@erichhugo @Apple Obviously, the iPhone and its competitors have already saturated the developed world and are making major inroads in other countries. So some other device is bound to come along and be the next really big thing. There’s a lot of activity in the labs of the tech companies. — PolitiTweet.org

@erichhugo @Apple Wasn’t that the general attitude of the leaders in the industry at the time? Including Blackberry, Microsoft? They refused to take the iPhone seriously. — PolitiTweet.org

Little-known fact: on this date in 2007, the same day Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone, he also launched the Apple TV. It hasn’t been remotely as important or successful. But, today, in our house, 80% of our TV viewing is done through the current Apple TV. https://t.co/HZ1zmcGoaH — PolitiTweet.org

Today is the 13th anniversary of the unveiling of the @Apple iPhone by Steve Jobs, with its novel design that used ten-finger multitouch instead of keyboard or stylus. It was a monumental day in tech history. I was there and was blown away. https://t.co/xrELRayFDY — PolitiTweet.org

@rcjackson @NewsLitProject I am. That’s why I said “According to this article, and others”, and included the full article from a quality source so readers can judge for themselves. I now see that Ronan Farrow, the Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist, has named and interviewed a rioter who carried those ties. — PolitiTweet.org

Was there a plan for hostages or killings at the Capitol? According to this article, and others, some of the invaders were fit, trained, seemingly organized men carrying heavy-duty zip ties police use to restrain criminals. They may also have been armed. https://t.co/xf4FWeXEWQ — PolitiTweet.org

@FactPipe @CaseyNewton The solution is for any private company to set any standard it wants. @karaswisher and I killed the entire comments section on @recode. We weren’t required to have one. Before that, we deleted some posts that violated our very comprehensive comments policy. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter’s permanent ban on Trump, and Facebook’s “indefinite” ban on him, are years too late. Millions have been fed lies and conspiracy theories and given tacit permission to commit acts of hate and violence because the two services dithered so long. They are complicit. — PolitiTweet.org

These companies’ algorithms and ad systems and failure to enforce their own rules are a huge part of the problem. But we should stop lumping all of “tech” into news stories about this issue. The vast majority of tech companies aren’t in the same business. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m all for tough regulation of social media and search. I believe Facebook, Twitter, and Google (esp. YouTube) are responsible for organizing and amplifying the conspiracy theories and normalization of the violence we saw this week. https://t.co/wU6nnLWCBO — PolitiTweet.org

Trump also claimed he quickly dispatched law enforcement and military to the Capitol. But Governor Hogan of Maryland, a Republican, said earlier it took him a long time to get Pentagon permission to send his National Guard. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s speech tonight should have been given on Nov. 3. It didn’t use the words “concede”, “Biden” or “Harris”. And it didn’t disavow the rioters’ support for him, or mention his urging them to march on the Capitol. In fact, he promised his cult that he’s “only just beginning.” — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s speech tonight should have been given on Nov. 3 or 4. It didn’t use the words “concede”, “Biden” or “Harris”. And it didn’t disavow the rioters’ support for him, or mention his urging them to march on the Capitol. In fact, he promised his cult that he’s far from done. — PolitiTweet.org
