Ahoy; - Don’t blame the man, blame the technology it seems! A 36-year-old man in the US is suing tech giant Apple for his porn addiction that ruined his marriage. In a 50-page complaint, Nashville lawyer Chris Sevier says his addiction began after accidentally typing F**kbook instead of Facebook into Apple's Safari web browser. His main complaint is that Apple should sell all products with a built-in filter to block all Internet porn. If the buyer is over the age of 18, he or she is free to contact Apple, sign a form acknowledging the ills of pornography, and receive a code to remove the filter. Sevier blames the porn sites for the downfall of his marriage after he began "desiring, younger more beautiful girls featured in porn videos than his wife, who was no longer 21.”His failed marriage caused the Plaintiff to experience emotional distress to the point of hospitalization." Sevier also claims that filters would not only help people with addictions, but would also help curtail unregulated online porn which is "hurting bricks and mortar or 'mom and pop' porn shops".
Apple has yet to respond to the complaint.

Imagine if he'd been searching for Appletrees and ended up with Langtrees? he'd really have an issue!! I hope the court sends him home with his apples between his legs :)

Lol...build it and they will cum. This guy came alright. Hope he didn't rot his apple to the core. Only in America, that you can make such a intelligent lawsuit against a tech giant. Next thing you know someone will sue playboy for his masturbation addiction. It seems this guy has the self control of a 8 yr old. lol...

Apple has a lot to answer for! It was Adam and Eve who decided to partake of that forbidden fruit and it went downhill from there!

Well, apple or fapple from real or fake store, smart or gumby nokia phones, when charging, if you happen to touch the metal part of z phone, you can feel the current, it's alive and lethal. Refrain from making or answering calls when it is plugged right into the wall. Unplug it 1st is what i normally do to answer or make calls.

Contrarian, I reckon the snake should cop the blame for tempting Adam & Eve.

That I-phone death is tragic and something I have never heard of in however long mobile 'phones have been around. Surely it must have been damaged or a dodgy knock-off.

I find it highly suspicious that in a country like China with such an authoritarian government they cannot control the fake manufacturing industry. There must be a fair bit of official tolerance involved.

Like a few years back when the powers that be Must have decided to throw the US a bone and they cracked down on all the pirate CD's Video games etc stacked huge piles of them on a quadrangle and ran over them with a steam roller Look at us we are responsible members of the trading community
The fact they could collect 100's of 1000's of them in a moment probably means they new exactly where they were from the beginning but it was time to show their good side to the trading world

They are about as trustworthy as people west of the Darling Ranges South of Yanchep and North of Mandurah ;D

You should see some of the copycat cars they have of Mazda's, Mini Coopers, etc...lol...if they can't control the car industry, let alone Fapple iphones. Besides capitalism is in, communism is taking a sideline, what is yours no longer belongs to the govt, ppl are out to make few bucks in anyway they can.

Ahoy thanks for the input everyone, this thread is getting more and more interesting. Its about Technology and its miss usage, then we throw in;---- well I have been addicted so it must be your fault. Getting back to the orginal story, here a guy who got a Wifey, he fucks it all up becouse he watches porn for hours and hours, get`s too horny and then shags serveral 20`tis old W/L, Hmmmmmmmm and I wonder why he Wifey wants nothing to do with him. Then he gets stressed and ends up in Hospital. At some point a lawyer came around and told him;-Hmmmm we thinks we can make you some Money????Its all Apple Fault??????????I rather be a HappyPirate than a silly Wally who has a addiction.
and talkng about addiction, Guess what!!!!!!! I have one;- Cheers and Pass the Rum

I think it's a general attitude shift over the years which has moved away from personal responsibility to someone else is to blame.
