Let`s brake this down, shall we?

And Apple included a feature to let someone know if an AirTag was moving 
with them.

But what you`re really showing is that a useful technology can be used 
in nefarious ways. That`s hardly unique to Apple.

Seriously? 2016, and Apple didn`t give the FBI the access they wanted.

-biggest-apple-scandals.html

Yes... ...let`s look:

`We don`t really think there was anything substantial to the problem, 
and the iPhone 4 sold tremendously well. Customers didn`t seem to 
notice, let alone mind, and Apple repeatedly pointed out that other 
mobile phones suffered the same effect. The iPhone 4S did have two 
antennas, mind.`

Wow, you can bend a piece of electronics. You`re not seriously claiming 
that no other smartphone doesn`t suffer from this non-problem, are you?

Gee, MobileMe wasn`t great. Oh, no!

They gave people a free album, and this is supposed to be a real problem?

Apple Maps wasn`t great from the word go. Golly.

"Crackgate" is just people not treating a piece of electronics with due 
care.

Sorry... ...but this is a pretty lame list.

Moving on.

Utterly irrelevant in a discussion of how well Apple`s products work for 
customers.

Dude... ...an article that starts with the Apple III? Honestly?

https://www.aol.com/finance/apple-facing-mountain-controversies-investors-172000
800.html

Show me the parts of that article that are relevant to a discussion of 
consumer satisfaction.

That would be true of any large company with lots of products that has 
been around for 43 years.
