As Arizona nears a final vote that could force changes on the App Store, a somewhat loaded survey of public opinion shows 69% of residents back the bill.
Despite Apple s increased lobbying, residents in Arizona are reportedly very strongly in favor of the state s HB2005 proposals to break up App Store payment monopolies.
According to a poll conducted by research firm Data Orbital, 69% of people expressed support. Only 11.8% were undecided, says Data Orbital, which is a small percentage for a legislative issue. Arizona voters have clear views on Big Tech, and the majority want action in the form of greater regulation, said Data Orbital s George Khalaf in a statement. Big Tech is in the news more and more whether it be for data and privacy concerns, its role in elections, censorship, or its general influence over our daily lives and activities.

Joe Biden is inaugurated hours after his predecessor leaves the White House, clearing the way for a beleaguered nation to turn the page on one of the most divisive chapters in its political history.
With millions of Americans watching on cellphones or laptops or television, and before a pandemic-thinned in-person audience of dignitaries and former presidents, President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris took their oaths of office on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, besieged two weeks earlier by an extremist mob.
