Why is it that Apple products attract blogspam titles?

> Networking changes coming in macOS 27

And yet:

> This year, with just over six weeks to go before that first beta of macOS 27, we already have two warnings of what might be coming.

> It repeated those warnings with macOS Sequoia 15.5, but still hasn’t confirmed when AFP will be lost.

> Although Apple carefully avoids being too specific, it warns that this change could come “as early as the next major software release”,

I originally added a different title: Apple is dropping AFP/TimeMachine support in macOS 27.

It seems like somehow got overwritten to the original title of the post.

Nevertheless, knowing Apple so far, unless _some_ large-enterprise~y customer comes and objects, they will drop the support. We already know Intel support is dropping. Why not clean up rest of the things from the kernel and the userspace?

I was also surprised by this. The post appears to contain next to no actual information.

The facts: Apple put a warning in macOS 15.5 that AFP support might be dropped in the future.

The claim: AFP support will be dropped in macOS 27.

I just do not see how you get from the facts to the claim. This is just complete speculation.
