Arguably though, it was old FUD, and very useless. Had it been new FUD… who knows?

It was intent that is patently clear in the aggregate of the messages that did it, not any one message. He has no interest in rational discussion. No one needs to play the fool.

I thought it was more for that lame claim about fingerprint sensors being old hat: "Fingerprint sensors on phones are a fresh idea in the public mind!" "Impossible!! Motorola came out with one two years ago!" "But it was lame and nobody bought it." "Doesn't matter! Apple knew about it!" "That is totally not the poi.." "Hey, look at how much better Google stock has been doing than Apple lately!" That'd be about where I'd start looking for the block link if the issue hadn't been resolved another way. By the basic reasoning above, Apple shouldn't bother with an iWatch because the market for that was spoiled by Samsung's lame attempt at one last year. Also, any fingerprint scanner is vulnerable if the hackers get access to your fingerprints. That article was like saying a computer is vulnerable because it can be hacked if someone steals your passwords.
