why lawsuit?

• m463 2y ago
  Apple gets sued for things all the time. I think there's a whole class action system set up for it. "iPhone owners get $92 payouts from Apple in phone-throttling settlement" https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/01/iphone-owners-get-92-payouts-from-apple-in-phone-throttling-settlement/ https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/01/iphone-owners-ge... etc... "Some iPhone users eligible for $349 in lawsuit settlement payout over audio issues" "Apple Lawsuit: M1 MacBook Pro and Air Have Display Hardware Defects, Causes Screens to Crack" "AppleCare Class Action: Apple Agrees to $95 Million Settlement for iPhone, iPad Users Given ‘Remanufactured’ Devices" "Apple Agrees to $50 Million Settlement Over Butterfly Keyboard Complaints"

  If you make a marketing claim, the government can sue you for not selling what you say you are. This doesn’t apply to puffery claims though, which is why Apple could have said ‘the new M2, with the best number of cores ever!’ And been fine with whatever.
