- barrkel 17y agoI'm not sure what you mean. If you mean you're hoping Apple is well indemnified against civil action because of this flaw, I wonder why you're so concerned for Apple Inc.'s bottom line. Are you an investor or employee of Apple Inc.? Some degree of liability in cases like this is necessary for companies to have appropriate motivation to avoid it. Yes, there's reputational damage involved, but for situations where the brand / product is less central to the company, the company can't be allowed to just walk away.
- ahoyhere 17y agoAgree that liability is important. In past "delete all user data" issues (I know there was at least one prior case with Mac OS, but I don't remember details), Apple paid for hard drive recovery service for those affected. You can't always trust 'em (they're a big company after all), but they've behaved honorably in the past.
