iPhone shot & burned

AnnieMole
Do you hate the iPhone as much as this guy? Fed up with Apple "dicatorship" he shot his iPhone three times with a 9mm. That wasn't enough as he then put it a bonfire and burnt it.

Any technology or gadget that you'd like to do the same with?

    • I'm reading this on an iPhone... That's funny. Seriously though, that was stupid. Could of made at least $100 selling it on eBay.

    • Why do people do this? First of there was absolutely no need, secondly you could have sold it or give it to me :) You reffered to your post as 'we' when i doubt there are many people that agree with you or atleast not to destroy an expensive phone over it. They make it deliberately recyclable aswell and ontop of that burning it releases toxic fumes -_-' How are apple not giving you freedom and running you under a dictatorship? It is simply advertising you make your product look the best, make it be better than its counterparts, show off its potential make sure you have an edge no one else can follow etc. If anything apple allows you to be alot more free than a PC but the pc is just pushing 'free' to a limit which borders / crosses over the borders of illegality, not that you can't do it with apple it is just less likely. Your point is not even supported you make a claim apple is creating a dictatorship? Look around friend what company isnt slowly trying to go for the big monopoly on the market, its just apple is going for a better form of advertising to let people know how good it is. If you don't like it its your choice whether to get it or not isn't it? So it's not a dictatorship. Things you need to do: Grow up, learn politics and just grow a pair mr 'big man with a gun'

    • i hope he plans on recycling that. i think i'd have been more impressed had he recycled the proceeds or sold the phone and donated the proceeds to charity. it just seems like a very destructive way to defy a destructive culture. with freedom comes responsibility, meh....

    • Hmm. . . bit extreme?

      Though the iPhone with 1 bullet hole through it could've fetched a bit of cash as modern art maybe...

      Oh com'n. they're only Zelda games (which are getting much and much more easy, especially for the seasoned Zelda gamer).

      But there's more annoying things, such as a 2x2 Rubick's Cube, or Lady PeePee
