I am quite sure not many people care if you buy another Apple product this year or the text; I am very sure I don't give a shit whether you give a shit.
This story is not about you or your buying habits. It is about the fact that concentration of power and money in the hands of a few tech executives is killing news stories, information about the world (not some comedy show).
The fact that it may not be novel doesn't make it unimportant. Crime is as old as time; it doesn't mean we shouldn't care.

This is just a power struggle between old media and new media. The general public has no reason to give a shit. To most people canceling a tv show isn't 'crime' and gawker isn't 'news'
- _-o-_ 6y agoConcentration of power and money is what allows shows to be made in the first place. This case isn't noteworthy in any way even if it's tech, not media exec this time around.

Like how the New York Post’s Twitter account was disabled for about 2 weeks because of a story they ran?
