What Apple is doing is what all manufacturers of smartphones, tablets, computers, etc. do. Do the Europeans go after the non-American companies like they do Apple? It seems the don't... I'm not an Apple fanboy by any means, but I’m definitely against the Europeans bashing American companies simply because they are American. Apple devices tend to last a long time, and since they are in high demand even a few years old, they often get sold to new owners rather than recycled. Maybe they should kick Samsung in the gonads instead. They produce way more new models each year than Apple does, and their products don't seem to have the longeveity of Apple products.
