I'm just not quite sure where to begin this this advert. Did the creatives not check the facts of Apples operations or claims? The spot claims products, offices, operations, data centres, are or will be carbon neutral by 2030 yet make no mention in the advert that this is only possible through buying significant offsets. They talk about shipping as being 95% less than aviation, but this is a fact of physics, not something that should be attributed to their efforts, their overall movement of products to market has not been reduced by 95% They claim all their data centres are carbon neutral, which is utter rubbish, data centres only report their scope 2, and the massive increase in water usage from Apples use of AI is not mentioned. Lots of other statements in this advert to challenge. Please, please please can advertising stop being part of the problem. We cannot allow brands to continue to Ad-Wash the public into believing that everything will be carbon neutral and therefore totally ok to consume indiscriminately. Aside from this, I feel like the ad falls foul of the recent ASA updated rules. Come on advertising, you can do better.

Yes totally agree Victoria! Apple done lots of work to offset their carbon..but the bottom line is, their business model is based on growth - on extracting more and more precious minerals and materials from 'Mother Nature' to make more and more products, that will last a year or two, then need to be 'upgraded' for no other reason than that they tell you the next model is better than their last...and on and on it goes...profits grow for Apple, electrical waste builds up somewhere else, people get sick mining for minerals, the planet suffers, we all suffer. Offsetting is not the strategy that will solve the crises we face. It creates guilt free purchases for the consumer. Apple I urge you to meet with Fairphone, with Patagonia, with Kate Raworth, and get some guidance from them. Create devices that last lifetimes and that can be fixed with recycled materials - closed loop life cycles. Mother Nature has had enough of the latest, best model. Advertising is so 1980s. We are not stupid. #closedloop #circulareconomy #greenwash #ecologicalcrisistoo #notjustcarbon #apple

Linus went head-to-head with one of our all time favourite legacy rugged laptops, the Panasonic TOUGHBOOK CF-19 (using these 🔨 🔥 🚗)! Aside from the entertaining battle, this is a very interesting deepdive into rugged standards and certification (like MIL-STD-xxx). https://lnkd.in/esXVvCWM As you might have guessed, we at Panasonic TOUGHBOOK take things seriously and we set our internal standards higher than the industry. For more information on the 'rugged confusion' read this: https://lnkd.in/esYx5QcC or this https://lnkd.in/eNdfvwMS or download this whitepaper: https://lnkd.in/e4AzViuS First learning: look at the details of the MIL-STD-xxx test report to see what has been tested and with how many samples AND ask for 3rd party test certificates. If you spend 💶 on rugged material, spend it right!

The monopolistic practices of Apple in the Chinese market could act as a catalyst for a decline in its competitiveness, viewed from two perspectives. Firstly, the protective policies of China towards Apple might backfire, given that the Android system in China is backed by highly competitive enterprises such as Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO, and vivo. If Apple continues to adhere to its monopolistic strategy with the App Store in pursuit of high profits, its market competitiveness will inevitably be weakened. Secondly, from a profit standpoint, Apple has reaped substantial profits through the App Store, but if it attempts to maintain this position through monopoly, it will similarly harm its competitiveness in the long run.

this is what we are building at Beneko, just more advanced, and around the circular economy A managed platform for telecoms to become a circular ecosystem and deliver “forever transactions”
