Yeah and maybe some people blamed Obama when their car wouldn't start, or people blame the restaurant when they spill hot coffee over themselves. There's a lot of things "some people do". With all due respect to those "some people", there is a limit to how much we coddle "some people" at the expense of generating more e-waste. Apple (and everyone else) should be held accountable for the damage they're causing to the environment by preventing repair of their products. Do you expect Microsoft to ban Firefox and Chrome because "some people" might call up their helpline when Firefox and Chrome have bugs? At some point, it gets ridiculous.
