Apple:
The October 8, 2018 issue of Bloomberg Businessweek incorrectly reports that Apple found “malicious chips” in servers on its network in 2015. As Apple has repeatedly explained to Bloomberg reporters and editors over the past 12 months, there is no truth to these claims.
Apple provided Bloomberg Businessweek with the following statement before their story was published.
We quoted pieces of this strongly worded rebuttal/denial in our story this morning but here is the full text of what Apple sent to Bloomberg regarding the Businessweek story.
At this point we have to start considering possibilities:
Bloomberg has been conned into this reporting by someone aiming to gain from market disruption: https://www.barrons.com/articles/apple-suppliers-take-17-billion-stock-hit-after-china-hacking-allegations-1538676503
(Amazon lost 2.2% today, Apple lost 1.76%. That represents roughly 3.5 billion dollars. Sure would like to know who was shorting Amazon and Apple and their associated suppliers yesterday, wouldn’t you?) As always follow the money
Or they’re being gaslit “Judith Miller” style by the Trump Administration, who just-so-happened to come out with a serious anti-China stance this week https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/oct/04/mike-pence-china-us-elections-meddling and this is a lie to con us into looking at something other than tax returns and crazy men being appointed to the Supreme Court.
Or given the incredible level of corruption displayed so far by this administration, ¿porque no los dos?
What’s new? Bloomberg has an axe to grind with Apple.
Do they have an axe to grind with Amazon? Amazon was far more of the focus of the article than Apple was.
Bloomberg, the hard hitting financial publication that relies on nonsense for its content.
Lately it’s been harder and harder to distinguish Bloomberg from Business Insider.
It feels like the “One Weird Trick” posts have gotta be right around the corner.
Trump, the head of government, does. the government who were the only sources for this claim.
China is the new Russia, haven’t you heard? Russia’s our friend. Very convenient story, no?
