I’ll counter your question with a question of my own. How would you title a document at your work that’s trying to convey that some process or practice doesn’t help customers and burns trust? I’m not saying we need the same decorum in personal writing. But I am stating there’s another way to make the argument.

Of course we write professionally at work. But that's work, and there is a level of bullshit required in all professional writing, because that is what is required. This isn't work, this is a personal blog, where someone is clearly and concisely expressing how many people feel using language that many people can relate to. I'm sure many have made the same argument before, and many feel the same way about Apple and its tactics, however, this one is ranking high on HN right now because it has a title which clicks with people's frustration. Apple's being an "asshole", there's no need to mince words.
