Apple certainly deserves a taste of what they do to others, but of course they won't.
Actually it's worse than that, this would be a legitimate, deserved hit, while what they do to all the refurbished/scavenged parts is not. Someone somewhere already paid Apple for those parts, and Apple no longer owns them, yet they can deploy the government to exert control over them, and the little guy can not do the same to defend against that.

- toyg 3y agoEh, just one that pays better. Like all big companies, I'm sure Apple exerts massive pressure on all salaries, because plenty of people do leave for better shores.

- toyg 3y agoThey used to do that in addition to the way I mentioned, lol. (Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if they still did that, just in a smarter way.)
