Just saw this on another site but apparently Apple is now deciding on what products they will allow us to purchase using their hardware/software.

My computer is an Apple and I haven't had any problems.
Not yet anyway.

I no longer use services such as Apple Pay and Pay Pal. I only use credit cards for my online purchases. And cash at the gun shows and LGS. But I will eventually start using the crypto currency that is trying to become adopted in the firearms industry called TUSC (The Universal Settlement Coin). It is still too early in development and marketing for adoption yet. But I hope it becomes a standard way to pay for firearms related products both online and at the brick and mortar level.

Haven't had a single problem buying what I want on Apple products. Imac, Ipad and Iphone zero issues with ordering anything.
