Qualcomm & iPhone bans, the Apple Card, Apple TV on Roku and more on the AppleInsider Podcast

The iPad mini 5 with Pencil

AppleInsider editor Victor Marks and writer William Gallagher answer listener emails and discuss:

• Apple's event dominates the conversation
• Victor has a little skepticism about the Apple Card, he's optimistic about the personal finance features in Wallet, but annoyed about the fees being nothing special.
• William is pleased that the services besides Card will roll out to the UK in a reasonable timeline. Victor attempts to convince him to take a second look at Apple Arcade
• TV is the star of the show for William. Roku's CEO talks about how Apple had no choice but to distribute TV on rival platforms.
• Randall Stephenson spoke about how HBO will get consumer data, even via AppleTV (seemingly in contradiction to Apple's privacy stance throughout the May 25th event.)
• The US FTC is investigating ISPs in the US for their data collection policies and practices.
• Following Joanna Stern's article on the butterfly keyboards, we comment that Apple needs to do a little more than issue an apology.
• Apple avoids an iPhone import ban on some models in the US, and Qualcomm sees a patent invalidated.
