How long have you had it for? I'd be willing to go back to the new models (having returned my 2017) if they truly fix the keyboard issue

Surely anyone bothered by this can just request that their data be nuked? Thanks GDPR.

+1 hour commutes on the tube, rude people, diesel fumes, outrageous rental prices. I could go on but I'm at work. This country cares WAY too much about London.

Weird. They have fingerprint authentication to access the app on Android but not pin.

This is a shame and another setback for Macbooks / Macs. I'd agree with "planned obselescense" over security being the motive as the article pointed out. This will also not hurt Apple in the slightest, only their consumers who are blinded by their unwavering loyalty to the brand.

Apple support is spot on. While I'm disappointed by the decline in quality of their products (namely the macbook pro), when I had to return my MBP 2017 a year after I bought it, and 3 months after they replaced the faulty keyboard, they were very supportive and refunded me the full amount. They're also very easy to talk to and treat you with respect unlike Google support (from my experience).
