So let me get this straight...the people at Apple who've developed now 6 (almost 7) versions of the iPhone STILL haven't put in a "mute" button? To the end that a person actually felt motivated to start a company needing $24,000 in start-up money? Just to make a dongle that plugs into the headphone jack and ACTUALLY mutes the phone? Because the silent button only mutes the ringer!? OMG! And there's really NO easier way to do this?

Seriously? ALL that just to mute the damn phone?

 

And the iPhone fan boys swear Apple is ahead of the curve. HAHA!

petition to DEMAND that Apple put a freaking mute button or switch or SOMETHING into the next iPhone? This is only what? 2013? I've seen the commercials where Samsung clowns on Apple for always promising the "Newest tech" in the "Next" iPhone. But this? A Mute button? LOL. I can't stop laughing, it's just TOO retarded with this one. Next thing they'll start is a campaign to put an off button on the damn things?!

This is the SAME company (don't know if you all know/remember) that DIDN'T allow MMS in the original iPhone. Steve Jobs insisted everyone just EMAIL(lol) pictures to eachother. So anyone who had the OG iPhone or knew anyone who had one may remember this. There was NO way to "text(MMS)" a picture to anyone. And we're MAD if MMS don't work in a ROM, just think, if you were an iPhone OG, you accepted this cause Jobs said that's what you want! LOL. Apple, so silly.

And let's not forget that the "development" community forced Apples hand with iOS 2.0 which offered (Finally) an "App Store". Steve Jobs was adament that companies would just create mobile versions of their sites, etc and that EVERYTHING would just be a webpage. Well the "development" iOS community felt this was retarded and the jailbroken iOS 2.0 has the "Cydia Repo library" which was basically a hacked way to install unsanctioned apps onto the iPhone (and OG iPod Touch).

Well, Apple's tune changed fast as sh!t when people were using unsanctioned apps in droves. And what? Apple couldn't get a taste of THAT action? They were gonna be damned to not get on that gravy train. Enter iOS 2.0, with the ALL NEW (yay, finally!) iOS Apple App Store (oh BTW, don't forget, apple gets a HUGE taste of your sales on this sh1t). 

 

Granted, I'm not gonna say the Play Store don't take a taste, but at least they left a little room for user innovation from the gate. They weren't gonna force feed you ONLY their crap and make you use dumpy Web based "apps".

This just in, Apple files Mute patent, claims Android infringes on its abrupt existence , thus creating a challenge for the growth of Apple. They demand $4.7 trillion in damages.

US Supreme Court Justices Ginsberg and Sotomayor are joined by Kagen and Breyer (all Liberals) in writing the dissenting position on the Apple V Google "Mute Button" case lamenting that: "While Google has proven that the "mute button has been in existence since Eugene Polley invented the remote control for the Zenith corporation DECADES ago, Apple has proven that based on Valentine v. Chrestensen (1942), that "Commercial Speech is NOT protected by the 1st Amendment". So while Google may feel that they "heard" about this "mute button" from the original Eugene Polley's (expired) patented invention, Apple is free and clear under the Commerce Clause, to bring forth litigation to Google concerning said "public domain mute buttons". While it saddens the dissenters that the majority has ruled in favor of Google in this case, we must point out that simply because a corporation did not actually "invent" an idea, that they can still sue the pants off of anyone who uses it and cite ambiguous and vague patents as the foundation of their litigation. This is a sad day for the Constitution and the Free World.

 

 

 

And yes, LMFAO, that took me a good 20 minutes to research and write, so I hope ya'll get a laugh out of it, especially with how Apple has been so sue happy.

Worth it! 20 minutes well wasted!
