Would I be wasting my breath by saying -

“we all don’t know”

Assuming none of us are doing any actual research.

Companies remote working causes irritation for me - as a customer - it is clear to me that most people are not suited to remote working as you need a really good appreciation of how all parts of your company/organisation works. Just doing your job causes many difficulties for the customer - the connection to important other parts of the company and people are broken.

Having said all the above - knowing that the companies you are dealing with are at “sixes and sevens” can actually give us, the customer an advantage.

I would advise all companies to be very careful who they allow to remote work - most people are not good at it, and in all likelihood your systems are not good enough.

LOL If you're this irrational about charges that you allowed to happen from being this irresponsible from not taking basic measures to protect your account with long-held, and well known practices and checks then you are not a physician I would trust. If you are so poor at managing your money that you need to sell your car over $1,800 than you are not a physician will trust*.

Note: Many years ago there were definitely issues with the system of which Apple was clearly culpable, but they resolved that lack of protections long ago.

* I think he probably had an extra car that he wasn't really using and decided to sell around the time of his own egregious oversight more so than he didn't have the funds to cover the cost, but either way it's not a good look for him.

I’m sure that patronising attempt to help the judge reach her decision will go down well. 

It's not "patronizing" in a legal case because the parties are obligated to put everything on-the-record in the event of any appeal.

If you want to talk about legal stuff, go to law school first.

I appreciate your comment. So many people here and places like 9to5 comment about things they know nothing about, but wish to present themselves as experts or highly experienced attorneys with practices focused on the subject at hand. In reality, they are responding with emotional based fanboism and know nothing about the legal aspects of the topic. When you do have some direct experience and read this stuff you want to slap them (not literally) upside the head and let them know they may be fooling themselves, but not you.

In this case, Mr. Lizard is a pretty good example of it. He also spells patronizing with an "s" instead of a "z" indicating he is educated somewhere other than the US and probably a resident/citizen of the UK or Australia  or some other place where the Queen's grammar rules. That makes it highly unlikely he knows anything about the the US courts or the subject other than the articles his fanboism leads him to read. To sum it up, he probably doesn't know squat about this and his comment about the Judge reflects the ignorance and a lack of respect for the law and court system.

I think you hit the nail on the head for the modern internet. We now have all these so-called "internet experts" or everything is a conspiracy of "big government" that finding intelligent logical dialog becomes muddled with garbage and even banter derails into nonsense.

There are NO experts commenting on any tech blogs anywhere, especially Apple blogs that are dominated by fanboys, haters, shills, and paid trolls. Actual experts wouldn’t have the time or inclination to post on a blog like AppleInsider, MacRumors, 9to5 Mac, etc. The anonymity of the internet allows anyone to present themself as an expert on a topic. 

The reverse of the old cliche is the real truth. Almost NOTHING you read on the internet is true. Most of what you read on the internet is complete bullshit..

So that means if what you’ve stated here is true, then it’s then almost certainly untrue, but if it’s false then it’s true, but if it’s true then it’s false, and worse, what I’m writing about what you wrote is true then it’s almost surely killed a cat inside a box, unless it’s still alive. 

I really need my opinion heard - I may know little but I believe my voice is every bit as important as anyone else, even if they have much more experience - I am the voice of the little man/woman.

I will have my say, and I want responses otherwise my opinion goes unheard and I am unloved.

Reasoned opinion often doesn’t get the attention I desire, so here goes …….
