IANA Businessman/MBA/Entropnenur so I have no idea how losing over a billion dollars could be “The most successful credit launch ever”. 

So your mistake here was relying on AppleInsider's crappy reporting. The quote is from October of 2019 and he was talking about the number of people that had applied for the newly launched card not the revenue generated from the card. The loss was from the first nine months of 2022. It turns out a lot happened between 2019 and 2022. 

Pro tip for Apple Insider writers. Don't jump all over some random tweet because it mentions Apple. Or if you are going to write an article based on some random person tweeting actually follow the thread rather than introduce your own conjecture. 

1. The bag wasn't at a dumpster. 

2. The pictures were pictures she took, not something that she found on Google maps. 

3. She has the bag back, a United currier had it and got it to her.... So United was actually right. 

There is literally no story here.

At no time was she smart enough to inform the police so that they could apprehend the United baggage handler who is stealing luggage?

Instead she posts to Twitter to guaranteeing the perp will not be identified.

Generally speaking there has to be evidence of a crime for the police to do anything. United said they were in possession of the bag and would get it delivered. Guess what ultimately happened? They got her bag to her. It was in the a currier truck not an apartment. I guess we can spin this question around on you? At no point were you smart enough to find what was actually happening and instead just posted criticism in a public place? Sounds like she and you have something in common.

I did not think we would get a genuine rescue report using this technology so soon after it was implemented. Very glad he had it to use, I shudder (or perhaps shiver is the right word) to think of what might have happened to him. Delighted there were no injuries

That said, is snowmobiling your way along a very remote route at 2am really a good idea? I can't help but think that alcohol might have played a role here ...

It’s okay to not make up things about other people.

Copyright infringement has gotten so rampant, when a proper claim is enforced, people react as if that's controversial. 

I find it hard to believe it’s copyright infringement.  And the claim wasn’t legal…it was with ScrewTube.  There is no legitimate basis for taking down. You’re talking about 20 rolled video that have no commercial value or negligible value to anyone.  

What you believe isn’t particularly relevant. What is relevant is copyright law. Apple’s broadcasts are in fact copyrighted. They have every right to defend their copyrights Go watch one and you will see the notice is clear as day.
