Only Apple would have its credit card scrutinized and tested in a lab followed by articles spreading across the Internet about how it is NOT pure titanium but ONLY 90% titanium. Oh the humanity! Another propaganda lie put out by Apple to deceive its users! The company is doomed! Call the call action lawyers! Titanium-gate is just getting started!

That even the techies are apparently ignorant of how metallurgy works means we have to have 500 word screeds about the subject is jaw dropping. It just gets funnier and funnier every day how Apple sits in the crosshairs of every swinging dick looking for clicks on their blogs.

And speaking of Apple in the crosshairs, have you read the Tech Crunch report and Rene Ritchie’s YouTube video revealing how Google’s zero-day team conveniently left out the fact that A: Android and Windows were also attacked by those websites and B: those websites were targeting a specific political and religious minority in China, namely the Uyghur muslims. Well fancy that, there was more to the story than Google’s team reported. It was all about Apple. It implied it was only iOS, period. But google has pledged to “do no wrong”. My old white ass. And that didn’t stop the tech press from pouncing on it and writing headlines like “Apple just gave 1.4 billion of its users a reason to quit the company”.

A fine example off how crazy and complex the Ict world is!
seems to me that HP and other PC giants don’t have these keyboard issues....

Oh yes they do. Take a look at any PC manufacturer’s support forums. As for the switchless keyboards those have been around for decades on musical keyboards with velocity sensitive MIDI keys. The pipe organ industry (which I am involved with) switched to contactless keyboards years ago, using light or magnetism (LDRs or MOSFETs) to turn a transistor on or off and thereby act as the switch. These keyboards are designed to last for decades without maintenance.

an awful lot of people want Apple to fail and fail big time. If Apple filed for Chapter 11, they would be partying for the next year.

These are the people that hate Apple and everything they stand for.

Bloomberg and the rest love to put Apple down because of the anger caused by the articles results in millions of clicks and Ad impressions which means money and money pays the hacks that write the tripe in the first place. And round the circle goes.

Those on Wall St that short Tech Stocks love it for obvious reasons. APPL drops in price and they make money.

OTOH, Apple gets a lot of free publicity from all this negativity and the backlash to it.

The day Steve Jobs died the C|net article about his death was deluged with hatred and glee over his death. Some were even trying to organize a party to meet at his grave and piss on it. Fortunately he is buried in an unmarked grave in a Palo Alto cemetery so no one knows where it is. That’s what the Internet is, was, and will always be. And C|net did nothing about it. But criticize a liberal ideology and you’re banned.

I hope this isn't true.

I read the posts with my own eyes and contacted c|net to take them down. They declined. Free speech and all that.

You would use all your data allocation is 1 hour under 5G. Apple need to become a carrier. 

And if Apple should become a carrier then what ? You won't be able to use your data allocation in 1 hour with 5G ? 

5G will require a unlimited plan. The carriers know this. 

Not at all. Speed does not equate to consumption. Downloading a movie takes the same amount of data no matter the speed of the download.
