It's kind of sad really. Businesses prey on the human condition and there's nothing we can do about it because, well, Apple's not really breaking the law and we all like good cellphones.

I find marketing pretty unethical. Manipulation of emotions and the brain to sell stuff.

Commodities seem harmless, but brainwashing people to buy moderate quality products at luxury prices is horrifying.
