Tensions between Tehran and Washington mounted following Trump’s withdrawal from the landmark Iran nuclear deal brokered by the Obama administration. On Sunday, Iran announced it would not abide by any limits established in the nuclear deal on the number of uranium enrichment centrifuges. Last May, Iran stopped complying with some commitments in the nuclear deal after Trump in 2018 unilaterally withdrew

Building another subscription video streaming service doesn’t solve a clear problem. There are dozens and dozens of streaming services.

By the way, don’t confuse Apple Pay with the Apple Card, which is a separate credit card you can apply for and use. Apple Pay is a system that lets you buy stuff with cards you already have, while the Apple Card is just a separate credit card option.
