How do execs not understand the Streisand Effect yet? If DeNiro had just made the speech and criticized Trump and the industry, I never would have read past the headline. Good for him for speaking out, but I’m good and over “celebrity bashes Trump” stories. Ah but Apple censors Trump criticism, well now you’ve got my click and my eyeballs. So dumb. Also evil. But mostly just dumb.
I work in a corporate. It is impressive how often people forget about the Streisand effect.
What worse is, I was thinking of watching the movie, but knowing it’s Apple, and knowing all the control they try to push on the content, then maybe is not worth it.
Yo ho ho ho, come sail the high seas, friend.
I been there since 2010 but lately getting into cinematography so I was interested in cinematic experience.
Yeah, “famous actor insults Trump” is such a “dog bites man” story I never would have even registered it.
I’ve never even heard of this award show. There probably wouldn’t even have been an article about it.
Yes, but now they have plausible deniability. They only care that they’re not taking the blame for it, not that it’s being said. “We tried to stop it, don’t blame us”.
Clipping a way Jon Stewart and now editing speeches. WTF is going on.
Apple is about making money. If honesty and integrity do not increase profits, they will be discarded.
Which is unbearable because Apple loves to pretend they care about issues
They all do until it affects profits.
Corporations are legal people but they are all literal psychopaths. They will do or say anything to keep the profits rolling and the real humans mean nothing to them.
We are nothing but a means to an end and that end is profits.

Tbf, it’s the same rant Bobby always gives and they were probably hoping to skip it as well as keep their ceremonies moving.
That makes it worse honestly. If he’s known to give those speeches and you give him a platform and censor him anyway, that seems more premeditated censorship than anything.
Tbf
you meant to say “to be a completely disingenuous little cunt”
but i agree that Bobby should keep his crying ass mouth shut if he’s not willing to tell Trump voters what he thinks of them… bitching about Trump just makes it worse, and shows that he’s just a fucking crybaby…
… in response to “feedback from the filmmaking team that wanted the actor’s remarks to be centered on the movie.”
Fuck that. You had de Niro submit a speech because you want to broadcast his words. You tried to make him a puppet and have your words in his voice.
The only thing actions like this cause is that it makes people wonder how many times smaller voices simply just went with the puppet speech.
I can’t believe they asked someone of talent to write a speech and think he’d just roll along with major changes in the voice.

Me either. Absolute fucking Muppetry.
Only money plz no expression.

Fuck all that noise, I am going to take De Niro at his word on this. They probably knew he wouldn’t approve the edits and tried to force it on him. How disrespectful.
The lesson is, never project your value into companies.
When I see people with Apple devices (or driving a Tesla lol), I automatically view them as someone I probably don’t like. At this point, Apple devices are social signals that say “I don’t care about much as long as my life is comfortable”.
When I see people saying dumb shit like this, I feel glad that my parents raised me right because I don’t judge others based on what devices they own.
When I see people claiming superiority because they disagree with another’s opinion I get sad.
There, we both talked about our feelings.
You did exactly this. You know that, right?
Claiming superiority and assuming you won’t like someone because of their choices are not the same.
There’s too much truth to this, I swear I was less biased at one point. But Apple users are too often the type to scoff at data privacy, use the magical cloud for everything, know nothing about how to troubleshoot issues, pay to have XY&Z done for them regardless of how simple it is, and especially eat up all the Apple propaganda (like Android MMS being compressed to hell, which made them believe Android cameras are terrible). It’s a perfect designer phone for a wannabe designer lifestyle.
I’m the exact opposite of the person you described. And I own several Apple products. So….
Your anecdotal argument is invalidated.
I’m not sure anecdotes can’t be invalidated any more than an opinion can. But either way, as my initial claim and I think theirs too wasn’t stated as a fact it can’t be invalidated by the existence of an exception.
Please read the words ‘too often’ in my post to realize you’ve just provided supporting evidence for my claim.
Funny. That’s how I see people who use Google products. But, anyway, how does this relate to the story you’re commenting on?
