Ford and Smith & Wesson, are saying "Welcome to the lawsuit club", but I really do not have any sympathy for Apple.

Ford created cars to make life easier, Smith & Wesson makes a product that provides protection, while Apple created a product to put other lives in jeopardy.

Please elucidate how the millions of Apple AirPods have put even a minority of their buyers or users lives in danger, and how they are not useful for the purpose for which they are sold or intended for use, DallasBiff. I suspect that you cannot. The percentage of such cases as these women are filing suit over is so small as to be microscopic, and your argument you’ve just claimed that “Apple created a product put other lives in jeopardy” that somehow differs from a similar argument that could be applied in a similar vein toward Ford or Smith & Wesson when their products are misused by end users just as Apple’s AirPods were misused by their end users??? Could not a Ford Car or a Smith & Wesson handgun be said to have been created to put other lives in jeopardy???

I put it to you that people LIKE YOU have said exactly that stupid thing you’ve just said about those companies for the exact same reason!

What does that say about YOU, DallasBiff?

I suggest you rethink your argument.

Well ok counsel, in the case of cars, there are laws against drunk or reckless driving in motor cars. In the case of firearms, there are laws against using a weapon to kill a life, be it a firearm, knife, or a screw driver.

Apple did not care that their tracker(airtag) could be used for hurtful things.

I can see you are a business purist, it's a whole new world out there, and go ahead make your money defending Apple and all the woke corporations. All you care about is "your" almighty $.

Airpods are really excellent but you should not wear them while jogging or walking in high-crime areas, or any areas for that matter. Jogging, hiking, bicycling, you are cutting yourself off from a primary warning system the lack of which could cause harm or death. It certainly isn’t good for your situational awareness. Also stupid people war them while driving. Apple also makes those phones that people are always looking at, at home, in bed, on the toilet, walking to the toilet, driving.... The phones could also be used to text things to people that could get you in real trouble.
