Oh so because you signed a few NDAs you're a cookie? Please you and everyone else knows they at Apple are wrong. Let's not act as it they're perfect. Still selling a 16GB phone in 2015. I have plenty of Apple products but there is no need to get smart by trying to say I'm a troll because I'm not. A lot of things would go much smoother in today's society if it wasn't for politically correctness getting in the way. Again I see no damage done to anyone in this situation with Ifixit. I have question myself and wonder if you're the troll here. You also seem like the type to tell in your coworkers for clocking a minute late. Please loosen up life is too short to be so uptight with the rules and regulations that really have no business being there or is just a waste of time.
First, no need to get personal. Because I have signed a few NDAs and I have studied business law as part of my degree and put NDAs into place as well, I think I have certain knowledge and experiences to be commenting on this topic.
Please explain to me how is Apple wrong when iFixit broke the NDA? You are bringing a completely unrelated argument into the discussion. Still selling a 16GB base model is a business decision I don't like as well as a consumer but it has absolutely nothing to do with Apple TV or a business relationship we are discussing here.
You need to understand this has absolutely nothing to do with political correctness. There has been a business relationship where one party violated a valid contract, which has been put into place. Nobody forced them to sign that NDA and to participate in development, they've chosen to.
So now you are making personal assumptions based on what? First, it's not true and secondly I have no idea how is that related to the NDA. If I broke an NDA in my work and my boss found out and I got sacked, well my fault, nobody else's. I do agree that life is too short however there is a reason why NDAs are in place, it's because of constant R&D, which brings us new products and technologies.
I see you probably don't agree with a concept of NDAs or business integrity for that matter however you should stay objective without making personal remarks, attacking a person with a different opinion, there is absolutely no need for that on a quality forum like MacRumors.
