TL:DR the countries who voted against did so to prevent Russia from using this vote as a justification for their invasion of Ukraine. Indeed they used the pretense of "removing Nazis" for their invasion.

These countries do not condone fascism (or at least officially. I'm looking at you, USA)

And you are now the "tech guy" and they'll turn to you every time their computer, TV, printer or any electronic appliance is not working as they think it should.

And you'll have to fix their frieds' stuff also

That was Palatine's last force trick.

Class members, estimated in the tens of millions, may receive up to $20 per Siri-enabled device, such as iPhones and Apple Watches.

The $95m is about nine hours of profit for Apple, whose net income was $93.74bn in its latest fiscal year.

That is not much to cover the violation of privacy and all the private discussions sent to third party advertisers.

Furthermore, a settlement does not involve an admission of wrongdoing nor a judicial finding of liability. Therefore no action (most probably) will be done on Apple's side.

That, of course, will cover the violation of privacy and all the private discussions sent to third party advertisers. Also the amount is negligible against their annual profits.

Remember, a settlement does not involve an admission of wrongdoing nor a judicial finding of liability. Therefore no action (most probably) will be done on Apple's side.

AI generated summary:

South Korean police attempted to arrest suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol after he ignored multiple summonses related to an investigation into his alleged abuse of power and incitement of insurrection during a failed martial law declaration. The operation, involving around 150 officers, was called off after a six-hour standoff due to being outnumbered by Yoon's supporters and his security personnel. Yoon's supporters celebrated the police's withdrawal, chanting slogans reminiscent of U.S. election protests. The investigation agency, the Corruption Investigation Office (CIO), expressed regret over Yoon's refusal to cooperate and indicated they may seek a new arrest warrant before the current one expires on January 6. Political tensions have escalated in South Korea, with ongoing protests and parliamentary actions against Yoon and his administration.
