Sep 22, 2021 | Audio/Music, Hardware, MacNotables, Security/Privacy, Software, UserGroups

In the midst of a thunderstorm, Adam Engst and Chuck Joiner make a virtual visit to the Apple CIDER user group in Rochester NY. In Part 1, we talk about weather apps, Apple’s support of classical music, and Adam’s project to combine multiple sets of speakers. We also dipped into the CSAM controversy and the implications of on-device monitoring and how we feel about that level of surveillance. (Part 1)
