Its a lot of exaggerated bs.
The dude who killed himself was not tortured. He did steal an iphone though.
Apple patents everything with Jobs' name on it.. the ad thing is most likely for a free version of paid software. Not to disable your phone and such...
AT&T forced them to kill the google talk app. IDK about those other apps. Probably the same.
They don't kill jailbroken iPhones, the update screws the jailbreak and it causes major issues. When you format the phone, it'll be fine.
As for the rest... just ugh... What ever happened to journalism being unbiased?
