Apple's signing the updates anyway; HTTP will be much more performant.

This is how Amazon Books stores work. Prices aren't displayed on the shelf, but using an app. The price is different for Prime members vs. non-Prime members.

A Prime subscription isn't required to use the store.

Isn't it up to the bank to allocate its resources responsibly?

Sorry; I (and presumably your original comment) meant the designation of Internet service providers as common carriers under Title II. This designation was applied in 2015.

Title II was only introduced as a result of the Open Internet Order (from 2010) being overturned. Net neutrality principles have been sanctioned by the FCC since 2005; removing title II designation and moving away from these principles is a shift that should not be understated.

Yes -- the configuration page states: "Space Gray accessories are available only at the time of your iMac Pro purchase.".

For the most part, no new law needs to be put in place. Anti-trust legislation should protect consumers from these practices.

"UK" is a bit misleading -- the representative action applies to residents of England and Wales only.

arguably, neutrality is an impossible task. where there is any editing or selection involved (be it by a person, or by an algorithm), neutrality disappears.

Based on numbers [0] released by both companies over the summer, Spotify has twice as many subscribers as Apple Music does.

Surely their having achieved this with limited market reach is positive for them, and not for Apple?

The document you're quoting is not law. The referendum itself was non-binding.

You can 3D Touch the Settings icon to jump to the WiFi settings.

Nominative nondeterminism?

Alternatively, Settings > App Store > uncheck "Download newly available updates in the background"

Anyone doing so would also require the name and address of the account holder.

Keshav's "How to Read a Paper" [1] is a good guide, though perhaps less in the "for non-scientists" camp.

Sure; companies are required to generate value for shareholders. That does not necessarily mean profit.

"Modern corporate law does not require for-profit corporations to pursue profit at the expense of everything else, and many do not.": http://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supreme-court/13-354.html

The sentence that follows the quote is "So unless you discover a competitor with the sort of lock-in that would prevent users from choosing you, don't discard the idea.". Most of the winners in the examples you gave had insurmountable lock-in (network effects, etc).

They already charge on AWS. The cost of 1 IP is built-in to the hourly cost, with extras and those attached to stopped instances charged explicitly.

I think the more interesting question is why consensus couldn't be reached on requiring TLS as part of the standard.

The standard [1] doesn't require the use of TLS/HTTPS. However, all of the major implementations only support HTTP/2 over TLS.
