If I were an employee of Huawei and I took that picture on my Canon 5DM3, then my boss turns around and orders me to write the advertisement implying a different camera took it, I'd be archiving all email conversations about it and use it as a smoking-gun when the truth comes out.

It's bad enough that advertising is selling a fantasy for many... but to downright lie, and try covering up is just shameful and pathetic.  On the flip side, it's not like any company would ever fess-up and say "yea, we lied.. sorry".  If there is even a shred of ambiguity they can use to make it sound like a mistake, they'll do that no matter what the momentary head-shake it causes.

Idiots.  I wouldn't buy that chinese garbage anyways.  Stunts like these just proves my point.

That's the difference with culture in China, they will blindly follow leadership no matter.

Standing ovation for a brilliant dose of reality. Maybe you can sway the other authors on this site to stop touting the bullshit narrative?

Yeah I agree. Seems like a few of the other authors would end up being called out in DED's articles if he was writing for another site. Especially with the direction some of them have been heading.

I am sure the other authors will really lose sleep over being called out by an author who is very one-sided and doesn't backup any of his claims other than referencing his previous articles.

I notice DED left in that someone can unlock the bootloader to roll the software back so they can gain access to the vulnerability. He may not know that when you unlock the bootloader it wipes the device deleting anything that was on it.

I.E. you would have to give to the user before they start using the device and hope they ignore all the alerts to update their phone.

Since you are new here you will soon find out that DED does not write to be factual, he writes to put down companies and people that are not Apple. Leaving out facts and using halftruths is his usual method. Read the arstechnica article he sourced his first sentence from if you want a factual look at the issue at hand. Read the rest of the article if you want to see him quoting his previous articles and a nasty take on Google.

this maybe true, but is it really unique to Apple?

I am guessing you didnt read the first line of the article.
