Apple is far from my favorite company, but this story just doesn't pass the smell test. For starters, they don't even specify the actual number of incidents, they just say "800 pages" worth. How many pages per incident? 1? 10? 100? And how many of those incidents actually involved some sort of explosion or harm to the owner, rather than just "smoking or overheating".

Worse though the story accuses Apple of a "coverup", but doesn't tell us exactly what they did. Filing a "series of exemptions" with the PSC is satisfyingly vague, but hardly a coverup. It's not like Apple is running around threatening reporters who run stories about faulty iPod batteries after all.

So what exactly is Apple "exempting" in these filing? If they're following the PSC's rules, I don't see a story here. After all we set those rules after all, and it sounds like Apple is following them.

Does it matter if its 1 or 100 case?

a cover up is a cover up.

no excuse.

Apple always called themself "oh it just works"

works what? catching fire? covering shit up?

Yea sure.

Kiss my ass Apple.
