Flagged for flamebait title. The actual title of the thread is "Can't activate iOS 6 on my iPhone 3GS". Please refrain from blatant editorialization in submissions.

And to address your title directly:

No, no it fucking isn't.

Also flagged. Getting sick of the drama created by these anti-apple people. Maybe try to pick a more important cause?

I don't understand why you get mad at me, clearly you are not the one without your phone/contacts/emails not working. Just to make it clear, I really like Apple, is just that I expect them to keep doing well what they used to do well. The tech support is not giving any help and people is not being able to use their phones (in my case, a work tool and also the only way to keep connected while on the go) for a week with no answer whatsoever about this issue.

Hacker News is not your personal tech support forum, nor is it your personal place to vent about your technical frustrations.

It is a community expectation that all submissions should respect their original titles (whether that is a blog post, an article, or something else). This keeps the front page useful instead of just a listing of opinions. You are more than welcome to editorialize and add your own take on things in the comments.

Worse yet, yours isn't just some editorialization or sarcastic comment, you're concocting a whole conspiracy theory without any basis whatsoever.
