From a marketing perspective, good press or bad press. It's still press and it gets the word out.

For every X group of people who don't want this, there will be Y person who will think it's a good idea and they will purchase the product.

Look at the segway, still made the owner millions.

Also sent him flying over a cliff to his death, so kind of a mixed bag.

Jimi Heselden was the one that fell over the cliff; he had become owner of the Segway company after buying-out the founders.

Segway was later sold to a Chinese company which itself was subject of a patent action by Segway. Good manoeuvre.
