This is great, and behavious we should encourage. But lets not pretend this isn't a carefully manage strategy.

A company doesn't care about you. It cares about messages like this.

It's a carefully managed strategy to ... make their customers happy?

If a company acts in a great way (e.g. replacing slightly dodgy equipment) whenever a customer lets them know they have an issue that's great for the customer, regardless of whatever internal reasoning the company may have for acting in that way.

How can we possibly compare trusting a friend to trusting a company that you'll sporadically buy products from?
