So, all of a sudden, yesterday: No more OAN on our Apple TVs. The app is still there, and still on Apple's app store, but all we get is a black screen with a little circle-slash thing in the lower-left corner. I check my Apple email folder and, sure enough: Was last billed in August. App on the app store says "Offers In-App Purchase," but the app does only what I described above. (Tried de-installing and re-installing it, too.) So does anybody have any clue WTF these id10ts did and how we can get it back? "America is at that awkward stage.

Apple has been removing a lot of stuff from the store the past couple of days, no explanations have been given yet that I know of. Remains to be seen whether it's a glitch, or if they have other motivations. "The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people." "Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy." "I did," said Ford, "it is." "So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?" "It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want." "You mean they actually vote for the lizards." "Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course." "But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?" "Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in." | |||

I'm not seeing anything in the news as far as anything Apple may have done. Sounds like it's just a technical glitch/issue I tried watching OAN but found myself liking NewsMax TV better, have you tried that yet? | |||

Nor have we. Yeah, we have NewsMax, too. It's actually my wife that watches those. Personally, I could do without either. "America is at that awkward stage.

Wrapping it up, I guess: OAN suddenly re-appeared yesterday. We still haven't been billed for September. "America is at that awkward stage.
