Original Note:
The Note pictured is incorrect. Apple was fined not for the slowdowns, but because they didn’t inform users. That has been rectified. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-51413724 Second, the slowdown is now optional. It helps sustainably by making phones with old batteries not shut down at random times. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208387
