you don't seem to have understood my objections. First, HN frowns on link shorteners. We want to see where we are going before we click. I notice you submitted that same link, a few days earlier. If you try that very many times, that link shortening service will make it onto PG's radar, and it will be banned. Second, we also don't like deceptive, linkbait titles. You are implying that Apple recently answered this most recent round of allegations. They in fact did not. Their earlier response was indeed relevant to this case, for sure. So just say that! Implying that you've got a scoop that nobody else has, in an effort to get clicks, is not cool. |

As far as the other issue... I am not interested in speculation about whether someone thinks company(a) is or isn't 'evil'. I want to know what they are doing. Then I will decide what their morality is. Everyone here is just glossing over the 'facts'. With sensational headlines like "Apple IS tracking you", "Apple ISN'T tracking you", etc... All complete speculation and BS, because they honestly don't know. Which is fine if the company hasn't already been forthcoming about the 'facts'. Well, this article answers all the speculation. I understand you think it's misleading because Apple spoke on this topic 9 months ago. YOU'RE LATE, and that is the point of the article. Apple did respond to these allegations, the first time they came up, and you and everyone else seems to have forgotten. However, I will heed your advice in the future and I appreciate you bringing it to my attention. I hope you will acknowledge that this latest round of alzheimer's outrage fostered by the likes of CNN and FOX as well as HN, Reddit, and Digg. We are smarter than that. Hackers aren't supposed to buy into propaganda and false outrage.
