Fast Company, quick shutdown.

Apple has responded to the obscene alert sent through Apple News from hackers who took over Fast Company’s website.

Apple seems to be getting closer to launching its classical music streaming app.

After buying classical music streaming service Primephonic last year, Apple promised it would launch a standalone classical music app in 2022.
