I think you and I are making different points rather than arguing over one.

You seem to be saying Apple is better than [insert other corporation here] in some way. I see that as irrelevant.

I am saying that corporations - in the larger picture - can't be trusted.

Apple, and in this case Google, behaving poorly reflects that.



We certainly see things very differently if you think "screw you" and "here, let me fix your out of warranty phone" are even remotely the same thing.


The fact Apple lost the court case suggests it ultimately wasn't "here, let me fix your out of warranty phone".


No, it was the fact that Apple fixed people's out of warranty phone so that it wouldn't suddenly go dead that suggests they fixed it.

Google, on the other hand, lost it's court case after refusing to fix a known defect that had Nexus phones die while reporting they had more than a 50% charge remaining, and staying dead until you connected them to a charger.
