Apple Apologises in the Wrong Place (For Now)

Green-red apple



Summary: Apple complies not with court orders but with intuition which limits damage to reputation

According to electronic publications like The Verge, Apple is printing -- through the paper medium alone -- some apology right after failing to do so in its Web site [1, 2, 3, 4]. Apple should remove or amend what its site was saying, but will it? There is more than one paper with the apology, but what will Apple preach to its choir which keeps insisting that Android is "stealing"? We keep seeing such claims in Twitter and beyond (links omitted as they are rebutted therein). People are still sceptical of what Apple is doing:



Apple’s apology to Samsung has hit the printed newspapers today. It’s shorter than the one it was ordered to rewrite, but does it sound like Apple means it this time?


We believe that in order for Apple to stop its more arrogant or zealous supporters from spreading FUD it should lead by example with a sincere statement at Apple.com.

"We've always been shameless about stealing great ideas."

--Steve Jobs, Apple
