The Daily's Verdict

This author has a mixed reputation for journalistic standards. It is advisable to fact-check, scrutinize for bias, and check for conflicts of interest before relying on the author's reporting.

Bias

86%

Examples:

  • Apple said Thursday that it would relax limits on repairing newer iPhones with used parts like screens, batteries and cameras
  • In the past, if an iPhone owner broke a part (a screen, for instance) and installed a genuine, used Apple screen purchased from a source such as eBay, the replacement display would not work properly because its serial number did not match the one in Apple's database. The only way to install a fully functioning replacement part was if it was bought from Apple
  • The change comes weeks after Oregon passed a law outlawing Apple's practice of tying parts to software
  • The reversal comes about five months after The New York Times published an analysis of Apple's increasing restrictions on iPhone repairs, which drove up costs for consumers

Conflicts of Interest

100%

Examples:

  • Apple and Google Are Discussing a Deal to Bring Generative A.I. to iPhones.

Contradictions

Deceptions
