I flagged it because it's just not interesting. Where's the "hacker news" angle? That a company's community representatives should never remove posts? That Lawrence Lessig should somehow enjoy immunity from what they try to uphold?
Company screws up some software upgrade, hundreds of uses swam their forums and complain. Who would be served from 100s of threads about the same thing with no solutions?
It's generally not "censhorship" unless the government does it. Your speech is not being suppressed by Apple not wanting spam in their forums. It's not some deep conspiracy to drive up Apple stock price.
So who really cares? Someone who has not upgraded to the latest iOS and needs WiFi access to drive his life critical system?

- Flimm 13y agoIf it's not interesting, don't upvote it. Flagging is for worse things than that.
- mistermann 13y agoThis is pretty brutal and disingenuous IMHO. If this is considered proper justification for flagging this post, I'm not surprised why there's such a positive Apple slant here.
