Of course it skips that! There are obviously plenty of good things Apple does with its products, and it is not on the article to qualify each of them before moving on to a criticism. The "human folly" is the susceptibility to advertising, which absolutely does work and was 100% leveraged heavily by Apple to great success. Pointing that out and the negative consequences of it as the article does is not "dismissing" anything else about Apple.
