Can you spot the similarity between Apple the company and Donald Trump? Well this most recent post from Techcrunch suggests that they are both pretty good at telling porky-pies!!
I mean the Trumpster is ahead on the total number but that hasn’t deterred Tim Cook et al from playing catch-up!!
Trump is a phenomenon. An asshole too. I mean just read what the Washington Post has to say on the matter – scary or what?
But that aside as this post is about lying tech giants as opposed to assholes pretending to be statesmen let’s focus on Apple!
TechCrunch lists 7, yes 7, whoppers in Apple’s latest product launch. That’s going some.
Is that what it takes now to get punters to part with their hard earned cash? Lies? Wow, how the mighty gave fallen..yet at the same time how big have we mugs grown? £1,400 for a phone??? That’s what I’ve heard, are we mad?
Well not me personally, I’ll make sure I buy my non-Apple devices from some company in the far east that delivers the same product with a better spec for a significantly lower price!!
I know that marketing is about being economical with the truth but Apple’s having a laugh. Or are Fanboys that dumb? Possibly!
But either way people, and particularly that means you people in tech companies that pretend to be holier than thou..stop the bullshit, stop the lies and FFS stop ripping us consumers off!
