After so much seething over the EU and the DMA, how will he continue to defend his favorite megacorp?
Without having read the actual lawsuit yet
Says it all

Longtime Apple trufan, co-creator of markdown, and often-middling internet thonker
Occasionally has some good opinions but only occasionally, very much got blinders on a lot of the time
my opinion of Gruber immediately went from “fuck that guy” to “FUCK THAT GUY” when I realized he’s the same one who’s been writing the garbage non-specs that guarantee I’ll never have a good time parsing bbcode-but-everywhere
Yeah with that one the guy rolled a 1d3 and got to apply a constant psychic damage effect to the whole world
Like you know how you get weird internet nerds who’ll take a bullet for felon musk? Gruber will take 10 for apple
All you need to know about Gruber is in this claim of his about phone photography, in a critique of a NY Times tech journalist who deigned to acknowledge that readers could just use flash to get better low-light photos:
In reality, a mainstream technology columnist’s job isn’t to encourage readers to cough up hundreds of dollars to buy the newest phone for the sake of something that might be of negligible importance to most of them.
Gruber clearly thinks his job is to always encourage readers to buy the latest Apple phone. At least when his job isn’t to sniff his own farts.
Flash is also technology! Most photography and videography is done using artificial light! There aren’t many people walking around with spy satellite lenses like fucking Kubrick to do natural light camera work.
Also I think he’s a bit of a fancy watch douchebag.
