As an Italian (yes, with capital I) i must thank MacRumors for giving us all a shiny opportunity to find out how many stupid persons are allowed to spread their arrogance all over the net.
I personally find amusing this equation: the more a person is unaware, ignorant, lout and boor, the more the same person wants everybody to know it.
This said:
There are laws. You respect them, you're ok. You don't respect them, you pay.
At least in theory. So: Apple is clean -> no problem. Apple is guilty -> please go to the counter.
I have yet to see a medical prescription that suggests the use of Apple Products so "take away the stores" is for the moment in TOP 10 of silly things of 21st century. Obviously follower racist comment "peaking of Italy, I hear Sotheby's is auctioning a bunch of Italian rifles from world War II. They are supposedly in pristine condition having only been dropped once" fighting for 2nd place with "Pay it and pass the cost on to Italian consumers to recoup. 16gb iPhone 6's for $5000 euros will get a couple of shakedown artist politicians ousted for sure."
Anyway MacRumors has enough clever guys to balance the idiots flourished in these last 2/3 years
I will end this rant with a quote from Jim Jarmusch's "Daunbailò (Down By Law)" (Tom Waits, John Lurie, Ellen Barkin) taken from Benigni's first appearance in the movie:
"Why don't you take a great ******, teste di cazzo"
Finally.. +1 dude. I was holding back because of so many stupid comments by americans who probably don't even know where italy is.
