It's both jawdropping and quite hilarious how lines like this make it into the review with no mention of Tim Cook kissing ass to Trump. Protests and politics are important, until they interfere with my right to a good iPhone camera review. Then it's just business as usual. Politics, in my iPhone camera? Say it ain't so!
Of course, they reinforce this by playing the "iPhone is so important" card, and leaning away from the notion of foreign manufacturing and domestic coercion being important. It's not about the first-party control wielded by Apple, the United States and protected hackers-for-hire like NSO Group. It's about capturing the moment, however vapid, temporary, compressed, modified or restricted it is.
