Hashtag Trending – iPhones in India; Amazon driver layoffs; Microsoft cancels ‘IoT in Action’ | IT World Canada News
For the first time ever, Apple is now able to sell smartphones in India, and it is trending on Google. Up until this point, Apple had been restricted from direct sales, as laws in India required them to partner with a third-party reseller within the country. But now that has changed, and the company’s CEO Tim Cook is crediting the advancement to Donald Trump and his administration. Cook was quoted as saying: We did not want to do that, we wanted to maintain control over our brand and so forth. But, the administration worked on this with the Indian government, and that change has been made.”
