This is hideous parasocial behaviour.
hard disagree. there is nothing hideous about expressing gratitude, whether to an individual or a company. is it a waste of time? probably. does it get reciprocated? probably not. does the other party care about you? generally no. So I don't disagree with your sentiment that apple doesn't care, but to label an expression of gratitude as hideous because it's unlikely to be heard or reciprocated - is hideous.
 
I know this is marketing material (although I want to believe it's true). But kind of makes you feel that not everything is specs and flashy designs.

Now, Apple; please bring back "The Lost Voice".
