The Chinese have a weird way of using the iPhone, and no one knows why
- joezydeco 11y agoI use it because my stupid lock button is busted on my iPhone 4. It works nicely, except there's no way to turn the iPhone back on except plugging into power.
- stray 11y agoI'm sure they use it to bypass the fingerprint scanner. Oh sure, the scanner may be turned off but that doesn't necessarily mean it's not collecting fingerprints anyway. Perhaps the Chinese are more realistic about pervasive surveillance than we are.
- faizmokhtar 11y agoApparently, It's not just the Chinese. I'm from Malaysia and a lot of folks here, especially young adults and teenagers use it this way. Like the quote from article said, they fear that the home button may break when it's used.
