Facebook, through the voice of vice-president Nick Clegg, attacks the company again Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, and says that it is an exclusive club to which only consumers with a lot of money have access. He says that only consumers from developed countries have access to Apple products because only they have the money to buy and use them.
The same thing is said at the moment including for the services that the Apple company offers for its customers, and everything is quite true. Apple products are very expensive, and not everyone can afford them, despite the claims of the Americans, while Facebook has products accessible to anyone, from anywhere.
Facebook makes these statements following the mutual attacks exchanged with Apple in recent months regarding the protection of user data and their use. Apple brags about data protection, Facebook accuses them of selling exclusive products, and in the end no one wins, because each company is right in its own way, in the end.
"Facebook is free — it's for everyone. Some other big tech companies make their money by selling expensive hardware or subscription services, or in some cases both, to consumers in developed, wealthier economies. They are an exclusive club, available only to aspiring consumers with the means to buy high-value hardware and services. There's no exclusivity at Facebook. No VIP access. No business class. Our services are as accessible to students in Guatemala, cattle farmers in the Midwest United States, office workers in Mumbai, tech startups in Nairobi, or taxi drivers in Berlin. More than 2 billion people use our platforms — because they can."
