That comment is actually good advice though. Whether Apple was ever going to reverse course was always entirely beyond their control, and the fact that they did doesn’t prove it was a good strategy to rely on them doing so.
- Triv888 6y agoIt does prove that it was worth a try, if anything... He even got some free publicity out of this.
- AmericanChopper 6y agoWell complaining is free, and it certainly was worth trying as much as he did. It would have been a very poor choice of hill to die on though. But as much as I think this is a dumb move by Apple, I think it’s also a dumb name. I personally would have just used it as an opportunity to rebrand with some free marketing thrown in with the anti-Apple furore.
