@dagams I am just saying the reaction is overblown (“rape”, “privacy invasion”, “resignation”), unless Apple’s plan was to make that a recurring action. And yes, the execution has flaws, can’t argue against that!
@manton The only rationale argument against the U2 “scandal” is that Apple might want to do it more often (think spam). At least, the uproar put an end to that possibility.
