Sorry but honestly I believe that the fact your family's Macbooks have no issues means nothing. My new macbooks too are OK and I love them but that means nothing as well. The issues and the class actions are a fact. The stunning Apple stuff price risings are facts too, yes, more expensive stuff from Apple in exchange of more issues. Sincerely I cannot understand guys like you and others always ready to defend a big rich company. I love my Apple devices, I really love them, but in the end I believe that my interests conflicts with Apple ones and I find stupid to defend the money of a 1 trillion company against my single hard worked salary. You know what I think? In the end guys like me are the real incentive to push Apple to do better. I critic Apple because I love his products and I want Apple keep doing "wow" stuff. I don't mind that much about price tags as long as Apple products are like they were few years ago that is a really long time investment with no issues at all.
In one of my Macbook Apple care has expired. Now I live every day with the nightmare that one key of the keyboard fails and there is nothing I can do about it but throwing everything in the trash can. That's just ridicolous for a product concived for professionals!
If you are stating that something is indeed a fact, you should provide also proof. I am not saying there are no issues at all because all electronic can and will have issues at some point. But you are presenting it in a way that all of Macs are faulty and I find that hard to believe. I would really like to see actual numbers of faulty Macs vs overall number of Macs bought. If crtiticizing Apple for REAL issues brings some positive updates for all users then I believe it is helpful but usually on Macrumors and similar websites few people post their issues with tech and community blows it out of proportions. How many Macbooks and MBPs had problems with keyboard, for example? As I wrote, my wife has 2016 MB which has 1st or 2nd gen keyboard and it is all working fine. I am not from US so I don't understand the law there but class action law suit can also be started by 10 people. Or even if 100 would make that lawsuit it is still tiny number compares to all Macs sold.
