    I don’t know about that, but I imagine it’ll be any recent iPhone that’s still receiving feature updates. I doubt the ones only receiving security patches will gain the ability.

    Apple really won’t want to fuck around or give the courts any room for interpreting them as breaking the rules here because the potential fine is up to 10% of worldwide annual revenue. Going up to 20% for repeat offenses.

    Yup, revenue, not profit. Worldwide. An amount Apple/Google/Microsoft/etc are terrified of the prospect of paying.

    E: In 2022, Apple’s revenue was $394 billion (jesus fucking christ, by the way). They really really do not want even the slightest risk of an almost $40 billion fine.

      I didn’t know Apple did security updates after feature updates. I really hope my iPad pro first gen gets this, even if it’s the last update it ever gets.
