I did the article and dozens of other articles regarding the same issue at hand. Apple has throttled iPhones when batteries health has fell beyond a certain threshold. The problem is, there was never any information relayed to the consumer about this happening. Consumers just thought there phone was slow, not that apple had slowed them down intentionally. Apple should have disclosed this, so the consumers could choose to either change the battery or purchase a new phone. Most didn't do the former because Apple never communicated that they throttled phones due to the battery. Everyone has to remember that most iPhone users don't have the technical understanding of these devices as a lot of the users here.
