Fall Detection saved my dads life

Throw away.

His watch called 911 last night after he fell and was unresponsive to the prompts. He has balance issues and we specifically got the watch for this feature after a few incidents prior. He had to get multiple stitches on his forehead but the scans came back negative for internal head bleeding. The doctors said he suffered a concussion and it might take a while to recover from the blunt trauma. I'm extremely thankful for that feature and I don't know what would've happened if we wasn't wearing his watch.

I just wanted to share and hopefully those on the fence about it with aging parents will consider it a little safety net.

Thanks Apple.

Apple + DuckDuckGo

Posted: 01 Jul 2019 11:24 PM PDT

I recently learned that DDG uses Apple Maps in search results and that got me wondering if and how Apple could form a strategic partnership with DDG to provide privacy focused search to Apple platform users.

My iPhone knows a lot about me. Could this information be used in some way to allow DDG to personalise search results for me in an "on device" way?

Could Apple share their expertise in differential privacy with DDG to help deliver better results while respecting user data?

If Apple wants to protect their users privacy they need to ensure that Apple customers have a best in class option for all major services that is privacy focused. They offer this in mail, messaging, maps, media, payments, and app authentication. But for search many people still feel they have to use Google even if they'd rather not.

What do you guys think? Will this happen? Can it or should it happen?
