Apple sends Cease and Desist to 9 year old girl

Published by linda at 9:26 am under opinion, news

Apple computers sent a cease and desist letter to a nine year old girl that had written them with ideas for making the ipod nano better.  Watch the video, it’s unbelievable.  Article here

 Whoops… edited to add;

Apple has since called and apologized to the little girl, and sent a letter of apology as well.  They have also notified the family and the media that they are modifying their policies on how to respond to people that have suggestions. 

Why do so many big companies need to get bad press before they actually LOOK AT how they do business.  It’s sad. Just sad.

    An example of engaging the lawyers before their brains.

    I noticed the story was from Apr 13, 2006. Is there any way to find out how this story has turned out? I’m sure if anyone can hunt that down Linda, it’s you!
