so yall heard about apple's latest fuckup?

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/01/doj-sec-investigating-apple-over-disclosures-of-iphone-slow-down-update/


Apple under investigation by DOJ, SEC for disclosures of its iPhone slow-down update
The government is looking into possible securities laws violations.
Apple's battery fiasco continues to grow as the US government gets involved. According to a Bloomberg report, the Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission are investigating if Apple violated securities laws with its disclosures surrounding a software update that intentionally slowed down the performance of older iPhones. The DOJ and SEC have requested more information from Apple on the subject.

No other details have been reported since the investigation is still new. It's possible that the government is looking into Apple violating the securities laws that require publicly traded companies to disclose accurate financial information, including risk factors associated with investing in the company. The DOJ and SEC may consider the update that included the slow-down practices a risk factor that could affect the company's stock and one that wasn't properly disclosed to investors. As of writing this article, Apple's stock fell 1.02 percent to $166.21 per share.

Take up shelter in the base of my spine

No. Scabs would scoop up all dev jobs immediately. There's no loyalty in tech.
