Opinion column says Apple hardware has entered a slop era
Original title: Apple Is Entering Its Slop Era
The piece is a personal essay about foldables, a touch-screen laptop, and Siri, not a security report.
A 404 Media opinion column argues that Apple, under CEO John Ternus, is shipping crowd-pleasing hardware after missing the shift to AI. It cites reported cracking on the foldable iPhone Duo, a planned touch-screen laptop, criticism of Siri AI, and the $300 Apple HomeView. Much of the piece is the author’s account of workplace pressure in 2010 to buy an iPhone and a later switch to a MacBook Air. No security incident, vulnerability, or product advisory is reported.
- John Ternus is described as Apple’s new CEO.
- The column says the iPhone Duo has been out for a few days.
- HomeView is described as a $300 Apple Watch meant for the home.
- The author says he considered iPhone privacy features but stayed on Android.
