The the home button scandal I'm talking about is older than that.
Circa 2010-15, the iphone home button was having more and more problem: https://osxdaily.com/2011/12/22/iphone-home-button-not-working-or-unresponsive-fix/ https://osxdaily.com/2011/12/22/iphone-home-button-not-worki...
For a while, half the users were just using a software button as a workaround: https://osxdaily.com/2012/07/02/broken-iphone-home-button-assistive-touch/ https://osxdaily.com/2012/07/02/broken-iphone-home-button-as...
It was funny to see everyone with a very expensive phone just moving around this fake button everywhere on their screen because their physical button was not working.
But then people stopped finding it funny.
Because Apple said it was a hardware problem, and said the fix was to buy the next iphone generation.
However, a few weeks later, jailbreak iphone received a patch from the community fixing the home button problem, showing not only that it was a software issue that was easy to fix, but Apple just conned their entire customer base.
