How many times do we have to go over this? They throttle the phones to prevent worse issues from happening.

How many times do we have to go over this? Just don’t fuck with my hardware post-purchase with sketchy updates.

You can turn the setting off. This is old news. We already had this lawsuit.

Back in the day I had a lengthy back and forth with an Apple engineer after I filed a radar on spontaneous reboots on my 3GS. Apple eventually fixed it but they should have communicated the fix better. Missed opportunity perhaps but not nefarious.

Sounds like a very tall bar to prove.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


LONDON, Nov 1 (Reuters) - Apple Inc (AAPL.O) on Wednesday lost a bid to block a mass London lawsuit worth up to $2 billion which accuses the tech giant of hiding defective batteries in millions of iPhones.

The lawsuit was brought by British consumer champion Justin Gutmann on behalf of around 24 million iPhone users in the United Kingdom.

His lawyers argued Apple concealed issues with batteries in certain phone models by “throttling” them with software updates and installed a power management tool which limited performance.

The CAT did, however, say there was “a lack of clarity and specificity” in Gutmann’s case which needed to be resolved before any trial.

It also said Gutmann’s litigation funding arrangements may need to be changed, following a landmark Supreme Court ruling in July which said many such agreements were unlawful.

The certification of Gutmann’s case adds to the number of high-value mass lawsuits currently being brought in London, following a July decision to give the go-ahead to claims against major banks for alleged foreign exchange rigging.
