Easter egg on German Apple website: Search your ToS, get insulting AIFF file
If you search on the German Apple website for 'AGB', the German abbreviation for Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen or General Terms of Service, you get an AIFF file as your result.
The AIFF file contains a few seconds of sound in German saying 'Dummer Sack', literally 'stupid bag', a not to plesant term to call other people in German.
Step-by-step with actual search result:

- runjake 14y agoOk, I'm flagging this. This is nonsense trying to muck up a controversy over nothing. Common sense and a few seconds of research indicates this audio file of a music clip is from a musician profile on Apple's Professional Profiles website: http://www.apple.com/de/pro/profiles/otto/ http://www.apple.com/de/pro/profiles/otto/ How did I figure out this URL? By clipping a couple levels of the AIFF URL: http://www.apple.com/de/pro/profiles/otto/images/dummasackloop.aiff http://www.apple.com/de/pro/profiles/otto/images/dummasacklo...
- chmars 14y agoWell, neither http://www.apple.com/de/pro/profiles/otto/ http://www.apple.com/de/pro/profiles/otto/ nor the AIFF file exist anymore … maybe you need to be a native speaker of German to see the issue here although it's certainly not a controversy but mainly a funny occurrence.
