The Market Ticker – THIS Is Why iFanboyism Defines America’s Stupidity
You know my opinion of Apple fanbois.
Well, you may think I'm either bigoted or simply too harsh on people.
Still think so after reading this?
A fake Apple advert claiming the new iOS 7 software makes iPhones and iPads waterproof has apparently fooled some users into destroying their devices.
The “advert” circulating on social media sites claims that updating devices with the operating system installs a “smart switch” that cuts off the phone's power supply when water is detected.
This, it claims, “prevents any damage to your iPhone's delicate circuitry”.
The advert looks remarkably similar to an authentic Apple advertisement, with the same plain white background and minimalist font and style.
It seems some users have been fooled into dunking their expensive gadgets into water to test out the promised feature, only to render their devices useless.
Yes, Apple fanbois really are that dumb.
Now you understand why I snicker at the premise that Apple has done anything more than expose the utter cult idiocy of American consumerism.
Yes, the cult of Apple fanbois are that easily duped into believing that Apple actually grew hardware into the case of their phones with an IOS update, implementing something that was heretofore impossible and rendering the devices impervious to water.
I rest my case.
Ps: Thanks for the PM alerting me to this
