Steve Jobs Confirms iPhone Has a Kill Switch
When I saw this headline, I nearly choked on my water. WTF?!?!? iPhone 3G really does have a remote kill switch mechanism! I wasn’t some crazy consipiracy theorist for believing Apple had a way of manipulating iPhones.
Stop the presses. This apparently doesn’t render the iPhone USELESS as I have claimed in previous rants…but it does have the capability to remove the software, which pretty much runs the phone, so in a twisted way that only Apple could conjure up, it does render the phone useless. Jay-zues allmighty…Apple has gone China on us. We now behold a device that can “self-destruct” with the flip of a wireless switch. What is Steve Jobs smoking?
Anyway, it just confirms my fear that Apple is creating devices for the purpose of thought control.
Okay, that was a little overboard…
Or was it?
