Not even the same. The VW coverup was to coverup a specific, fraudulent behavior by the company in an attempt to commit fraud.
The Apple situation is basically a reporter with no named sources saying that Apple itself was fooled by outside sources. There's a HUGE difference between willful fraud (VW) and corporate embarrassment (Apple IF it was true).
- saudioger 8y agoWell my point is that it could be corporate embarrassment AND willful fraud to cover up the corporate embarrassment. They have a huge incentive to lie, because even if they were truthful from the beginning and this did happen... it would be very bad for them. I also think this goes far beyond "embarrassment" — this is something that could potentially destroy Apple's supply chain.
