So it feels like we should all be wearing white jumpsuits with awesome rainbow stripes, preparing to jump out of a perfectly good aeroplane… It’s been a whirlwind week since the Keynote and now we have finally gotten to watch “What’s new in Device Management” (note the different name this year!) - we thought it would be fun to get together and livestream our thoughts. So, before we get into the details, what would you give the Keynote out of 10?

The hosts take a nostalgic look at the '90s tech wars, contrasting Microsoft's antitrust battles with today's scrutiny of Apple. They dive into the legal complexities surrounding major tech companies and reflect humorously on their lack of legal training. The discussion also touches on the challenges developers face in the App Store, balancing user privacy with corporate guidelines. With a nod to historical cases, they contemplate the implications of monopolies in tech and encourage audience interaction for future debates.
