Jobs excelled at saying no to people’s current needs in favor of positioning his business to master their next needs, in order to profit greatly from satisfying his customer’s future desires. GM is sacrificing people’s needs in order to harvest their data for profit, with no apparent improvements on the table for buyers or users of GM vehicles in exchange for their gains. GM is lying. They simply can’t sustain growth in revenue growth to prop up their stock price without New And Innovative Revenue Sources. None of this is for their customers; it’s to reallocate a share of Google’s data revenue, and to begin generating revenue from privacy-shielded iPhone users, for themselves. Makes sense that their ex-Apple tech leader fired himself out of a cannon over their selfishness. They probably wrote the Jobs analogy to exploit his Apple connection in the eyes of the public and I bet that was the last straw.
