'Apple showed a lack of intgrity'....is that a surprise?

Yes, how dare that man iMply that Apple was iNcontempt?
Apple is a law-abiding and fair company; people shouldn't believe the histrionic banter of some judge (unless it's judge lucy Ho) or the utterances of the thousands of workers at some Chinese factory.

if Apple had integrity:
- they would not file for stupid patents of rectangle with rounded corners
- they would not take their competitors to courts with such petty patents
- they would use standard connectors for their gadgets
- they would not sell a piece of wire for $30
- they would not use "reality distortion field" to mislead customers
- they would apologize when they are wrong and not point their fingers to their victims
....
Only if Apple had integrity!

They keep playing with fire, they're going to get burned.

Burn they will for sure!!
"...it would take two weeks to change the original statement on its
website."
How the hell would changing the statement take two weeks?? When all it took was a few days to post it after the Judge ruled against Apple?? Seems like Apple is still not the leader in tech world as people claim them to be.

i myself can change one article in our website for an hour, but it will take them two weeks, better not put up a website at all.

Typical. The only company in the world that thinks they're above the law. I hope for the worst for them in the near future.

I would not say "only", but perhaps most visible and arrogantly aggressive

Maybe Apple used an apple i"max" that couldn't digest humiliation to post apology statement on the web that's why

Apple just happens to have their confidence so far up their ass.

Simple instructions and yet Apple cannot comply.. What kind of company is that?

Apple to Judge --- What's integrity? It's one of the things that starts with "i" and we don't own it yet :D

"Judge Jacob is still angry and on Friday, he said that Apple showed a "lack of integrity"
Really? Apple? Lack of integrity? I'm shocked by this news...

Y'all put way to much effort into hating Apple, it's really not that serious. Then again, maybe it is that serious in y'all opinions.

You put too much effort into turning a blind eye. It really is that serious. Then again, maybe it isn't that serious in your opinion.
When a company thinks it's above the law, that's when something has to be done to put it in line. apple is under the impression that deep pockets allow it to do whatever it wants in any country, if that isn't bad enough for you then I don't know what to tell you.

As an emotional response... people are allowed to hate whatever they like. A greedy, pompous, domineering, hypocritical company seems as deserving a target as any other.
16. Stuntman posted on 09 Nov 2012, 17:52 2 0
Apple needed the time to figure out how to hide the apology from people which they eventually did.
28. protozeloz posted on 09 Nov 2012, 19:16 2 0
They did, page renders different in both US and UK sites (making one bigger) so contact and disclaimer can only be seen if scrolled down

A HA!
Truth be told.. and here it comes again.. as what my good friend Rihanna says "what goes around comes back around.."

Ohh no.. Apple lacks integrity? What is the world coming to? Is there still any point to life?

Upon each day that passes, I become more and more ashamed and embarassed I ever loved Apple. Completely unprofessional and childish and at least Samsung's commericals are funny and clever.

You taking about the recent era or the entire company's history? Stealing Xerox Parc wasn't the most integrity-filled action ever...

Seriously I don't even own an Apple product, but put up an apology on their site? How would you all feel if Judge Koh told Samsung to put up an apology on their site for copying apples designs? ( Not saying they did but according to Judge Koh they did.) Then samsung refused to do so?
You all would be saying "APPLES THINKZ THEY CAN JUST MAKE PEOPLE DO WHATEVER THEY WANT, GOOD JOB STANDING UP TO THEM SAMSUNG!"
But since it's apple you all are saying "SUCH AN EVIL, CHILDISH, AND UNPROFESSIONAL COMPANY!"

In life there is good and there's evil.
So is the case in the tech world.
I'm serious here. Apple IS EVIL. If the definition of evil is "an entity seeking to control any and all fields and aspects associated directly or indirectly with it's interests whilst caring only for it's own interest and via complete disregard for the well being of other entities".
The very moment they BANNED a COMPETITIVE product - they became evil.
This is not just some childish biased "fandroid" claim. This is a pure objective observation.

Tell me how Apple has a complete disregard for the well being of other entities? Business is business, Apple isn't the only business that tries to take down the competition. If you believe so, you're naive.

When a person start a sentence beginning with "I didnt'......" means he/she did. Why defending yourself if you didn't? just like all thieves saying " I didn't steal it"
"Explain is just a cover up" = direct translate from Chinese "解釋就是掩飾"

Unfortunately, your honor, it's not at all atypical.
