Call me back when macOS is finally on Silicon iPad, Apple. You're only encouraging ecosystem growth with iPadOS.

Kezkouz, 10 May 2024What's going on with these people?! So much sensitivit... moreDestroying artistic, creative stuff to prove you're the bully that runs the market.
Already, we have teenagers destroying stuff just for the sake of a good tiktok video. All this is making us lunatics of an undetectable kind.
Its not a good message for future generations, even though I'm not overly sensitive to it, but speaking is my right and so I did.
All this stuff is rubbish. Respect things too.
A week later, someone else from Android world, might come up with a hydro-press destroying ipad. How useful will that be?

Anonymous, 10 May 2024This ad is about the latest iPad Pro being thin.The iPad is not be thin enough to survive the press. It Apple meant that metaphorically, the message is simply lost from all the distractions.

Lol, if anything, that was a pretty cheesy and funny ad. I don't think it's a great ad, but it was kinda funny.
Of course everyone is different, I guess many people interpreted it in different ways.

The purpose of advertising is to make people want to buy your products. If an ad fails to meet this objective, there is no point to waste money to show it on TV channels. Apple probably decided that this ad was a failure.

I don't see anything offensive. Apple needs to take a stand and continue any ad they wish. No one can please the whole world. Someone will always be offended, no matter what.
I agree ads should be taken off if it is offensive like racial etc, but this, hahaha. So silly.

I got the impression all of those things were "ingredients" they crushed to form a portable device that allows you the freedom to enjoy your hobbies from anywhere. I don't see how that is offensive.
They could have thrown everything into a blender, but then it comes out like a drink. Apple doesn't make drinks. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, as I guessed so. A lot of weak generations (millennia, gen Z and Alpha) bashing me for the truth. So, I just proved my point. Some even asked me not to be sensitive on tech site? I was like WTF?, I just saying the truth about the news. Really?? I'm the one who is sensitive? Or the person is the one who're sensitive? Just because I hit his mark 🤭🤭

It's a commercial, the clutching of pearls, and wailing and gnashing of teeth is actually satisfying. How soft humanity has become.

The "I am a Mac | I am a PC" ads tried to fuel fanboyism & consumer tribalism.
"What's a Computer" was basically teasing the idea that closed consoles can replace PCs. (Which is a controversial topic)

Nor is the product something that will remotely affect creative industries. It's an ad that will be forgotten about in a month's time but people see it as a horrendous event worth trying to cancel.
