these people are only just now realizing how tightly controlled the ios ecology is

if they were that concerned about "freedom" they should have switched platforms years ago but like all libertarians, nothing is actually a problem until it affects them directly

also, if they were real captains of industry they'd realize that this is an opportunity to create a mobile-focused website that provides the same services using a similar ui, but it's much easier to just whine about it instead

blockchain.io isnt even responsive

so wait, @appleofficial is some made up handle, right, and these dopes are sending their bitter twitter-missives to nobody?
and now there's some fad of busting your paid-for apple device to send a message to a corporate entity that really doesn't care? (got your money already, no worries.)

somebody said it best earlier that these libertarians only care when a private company makes a legitimate and consistently valid decision that effects them in a minor manner or slightly inconveniences some already dopy and convoluted process. I mean, why not jailbreak the device or use a web interface?? better yet, burn your own home and kill your family to show that this injustice will not stand, man.

I'm not sure apple even has a verified twitter account. Like half the tweets I saw to tim cook were going to the wrong handle.

pro-est of clicks

Day 3 – Friday 7 February
I started my protest a little later today in the knowledge that most of the Goxies don’t start work until after 9am. Then there was an unexpected twist; another person showed up looking for Mark. He was an emissary of an early adopter and well known member of the bitcoin community, and was there to collect an eye watering amount of money.
My emotions were mixed on seeing this person; on one hand I was glad to see another protester to fight the good cause. On the other hand, my heart sank in the knowledge that if Mark isn’t paying off his old friends in the bitcoin community then what chance do small fry like me have?
As the emissary and I chatted, Mark Karpeles arrived, and we both confronted him, the conversation went on for some time and most of it conducted in French which I had trouble understanding. However I did mange to record the whole thing on video.
The episode only came to a halt when Gonzague appeared in the lobby and rescued Mark. Very soon after this point, MtGox released a statement announcing that all BTC withdrawals were suspended.
In conclusion, I think just witnessed MtGox die today. I didn’t get my bitcoin, but glad I came and tried.
