This statement implies the former, not the latter.

The domains help Stubhub obscure that they are involved
You have described every modern marketing and sales organization. Why is this industry any different than alcohol, fashion, vehicles, banking...
You can sell an iOS exploit for more because the people you're targeting with it are generally wealthier.
The problem is that accusing a student of cheating (especially in the US) comes with a risk of lawsuit by parents and being forced to "prove it". If it's not clear-cut plagerism but a new novel work, that claim doesn't hold up.
I think the future of this is milti-fold. Don't try and identify AI papers (as you say, a cat and mouse game), just try to identify if the author is the same author as previous works. Students over their academic careers produce many works, enough to identify them. Secondarily, emphasize more short form writing in class, where research is done ahead of time but papers are composed in real time. Last, especially for younger students, emphasize (and grade) the process, not the outcome as much. Show your sources, outline, etc long before you turn in a paper. The value of having ai write it drops if you have to show your work.
By comparison, nothing (not even Google) is stopping Apple from producing CarPlay for Android. All the APIs are there. They could even distribute it in the Play store.
Compare the PhoneLink capabilities between iPhone and Android, vs the macOS integration Apple offers iOS.
I almost had to click through to the article!
Lots of other weird stuff is touch screen only, like re-aiming the A/C vents or taking the headlights off of auto-mode, but the main stuff does.
Possibly part of the reason to depart? A $70M comp cut and little hope of it recovering seems a good reason
That's the reason I stay with android. The Apple version of the app (which has to come through the app store) is not allowed to block anything for Apple apps or services. This they exempt themselves from user control.
Tesla: made an appointment on the app at a time that worked for me (about a week out). Drove in, parked the car, walked away in under 5 minutes. App notifies me I've got a $100 per ride Uber credit to get back to work/home. Repair is completed in about 5 hours, I get a call and notification that the work is done.
Honda: airbag recall - the dealership can't tell me when it'll be finished, offers to buy my car because "it's not safe anymore anyways", high pressure sales tactics while I wait to drop off / sign in. Repair takes two days, no loaner vehicle or drop-off shuttle. Three weeks after I pick up my car the airbag light starts flashing intermittently. I bring the car back, they tell me it'll be $2300 to "investigate" and could take a few days. If they find it was due to the recall repair work I might not be charged, but if there's any hint it was something else I'll need to pay for that repair (in addition to the investigation).
Edit: clarity
A totally excellent list of supported and tested devices is at the latter part of this article.

An interesting summary of how they studied this if you're curious:
Musk himself claims that the only curtailment is "what is prohibited by law". This isn't some tweet dragged from his history, either. It's from two days ago, and is on this topic.
1. Requires a common definition of spamming. If a bot is posting headlines for the NYT on their official account is that spam? A person really eagerly replying to everyone about their favorite band? Someone trying really hard to sell you their diet pills? Musk seems to think all these are equally OK (except maybe the nyt bot).
2. Musk has been sanctioned by the SEC for illegal stock manipulation based on his tweets. He argues he should be able to. Who decides?
3. What about calling a British citizen a pedofile because you're angry he didn't like your idea? In the UK that's a crime (libel laws are different than the US, and I'm certainly no expert) but simply hiding it to UK citizens doesn't actually comply with the laws. Jurisdiction isn't clear cut.
The examples I gave are reasons why a self-described "free speech absolutist" probably isn't going to be adequately equipped to tackle these issues.
Content moderation at scale - leaving out political content or opinions - requires proactive decisions that are often murky at best. And many can have consequences for the platform, especially with both sides of the American political system attacking Section 230 and seeking to hold those platforms responsible for the content of their users.
Namely I think he vastly underestimates how complex content moderation at scale is.
For the windows and Android users (of which I am one), the first party "your phone" app in windows 10/11 gives you this along with a lot of other amazing features (running your phone apps on desktop, access to photos and sms, notifications, calling and answering through your computer).
Declaring oneself a business comes with protections for the individual in exchange for agreeing to serve society at large. Refusing to do so is failing to uphold the obligations one agreed to.
