    Is this the one where people were suing apple because batteries in old phones weren’t lasting long enough? So in response, apple started throttling older phones CPU’s… to make the batteries last longer… then got sued for that as well?

    Apple ain’t perfect, and I say that as a total sheep who would buy a rock if they made one.

    But I feels like most cases against them are just people saying “hey apple has money… AAHH UUUMMMM your phone is too big for my hands to hold and that’s discrimination!gib money now!”

      allow me to rebut:
      It feels like in most cases Apple is saying “I can do whatever the fuck I want and you won’t remember a goddamn thing”, like the lovely lady in that movie Memento.

      Apple had a new phone out, they pushed a software update to slow down the old phones, and didn’t tell anyone they did it: end of story. I remember the very day this happened, no word of a lie. For it to take this goddamn long to actually be financially accountable for doing this is a crime unto itself.
