Apple Is Forcing This Widow To Get A Court Order To Retrieve Her Dead Husbands Passwords And I Think I Am Now An Apple Guy For Life
“I finally got someone [from Apple] who said, ‘You need a court order.’ I was just completely flummoxed. What do you mean a court order? I said that was ridiculous, because we’ve been able to transfer the title of the house, we’ve been able to transfer the car, all these things just using a notarized death certificate and the will,” Bush told CBC.
I fucking knew I was an Apple guy for a reason, Steve Jobs is a ride or die motherfucker. If you pass away, they aren’t talking about any of your shit unless a court says they have to, love it. My only qualm with this is why Apple hasn’t put this is in their marketing campaigns. Fuck some 20 year olds dancing around to Feist in Brooklyn, just run a commercial that says “when you die, we won’t snitch”. Done and done. If you don’t fear your family someday seeing all the things you do on the internet then you’re either a pussy or you’ve never been on the internet. And don’t tell me this old lady just wanted to play her card game. Get the fuck out of here. She wants to know what porn sites her husband was visiting, whether or not he had hit up backpages or rubmaps.com, shit like that. I may be dumb but I’m not stupid, lady. Card games? Come on. Every person should have privacy rights to their computer, I don’t care if you’re dead or alive, I get that and Apple gets that. Never using another product again.
PS
If someone told me I had to get a court order for anything at all there is a 99.9% chance I’m not doing it. You could tell me right now that if I successfully got a court order I would get 50k in cash I’d probably still hesitate and be like I don’t know, that seems like a lot of paperwork and standing in lines, I’ll probably just pass and continue to sit here and aimlessly scroll through netflix until I give up and decide to just channel flip on regular TV.
