What the hell is this crap post from the New York Times? They quote three comments about the stolen iPhone story that indicated glee at Apple’s loss of secrecy control. THREE.
But perhaps what is surprising is the utter delight and occasional vitriol permeating the reactions around the Web.
Surprising that there are people who hate Apple? Yeah, that’s just shocking. Never seen that before. They conclude:
The near-giddy response to Appleās misstep may point to a broader shift in the public attitude toward the company and its covert tactics.
A broad shift based on three comments? Fine, I’m sure there were more but the point is this post is worthless. People have hated Apple and hoped for its demise since the Mac launched in 1984. That there are still Apple haters is not a story at all. Perhaps if they had some facts and some numbers to prove that Apple’s actual fans were changing heart they might have the start of something.
But they don’t. All they have is link bait bullshit.
