The Digital Home Video: Frivolous lawsuits against Apple need to stop

There are too many frivolous lawsuits against Apple and it needs to stop.

And as always, drop me a line or follow me on Twitter!

Remember the Mcdonald's hot coffee fiasco in which a lady sued MD for not explicitly labeling "cation hot"? This nut ball who is suing apple is of the same breed. It is hard for me to get my head around this, to think a person could be so stupid. Here's the truth: these people who go around suing companies like Apple are only in it for the money!! If you are able to win one of these cases in your lifetime then you will be well off. Often times companies do not have the time or desire to battle with these pinheads so instead the settle, often for upwards of a million. Terrible.

I have been scalded by Mcdonalds and I have been had by Apple with poor business practices. I have learned to not trust these and other companies like them, so Don is right don't sue and waste your time. write in blogs like this and say they are not Customer friendly companies and only care about the mighty penny. Don't waste anymore of your money.

This person suing should just have taken the phone back and said no thank you! Don't they have a 30 day return policy!

If people can sue and get money for being lied too or hurt, good! But seems like a lot of headache.

Everyone keeps talking about this individual that is suing Apple. It's much more likely that the law firm that is representing him is the culprit here and he is merely a paid figurehead that they are using. America's litigious system allows these sleazy firms/lawyers to sue without anything to lose. In other countries if you lose the suit you pay the defendant's costs. I don't think the American system works that way, but it might go a long way to stop these frivilous suits.
If this is allowed to go as a class action the individuals that are part of it will get chump change, but the legal firm will get a big payday since they take a percentage of the total payout if there is one, hence the motivation to sue anything that moves.

Only just apple? And what about every other company being hit with frivilous lawsuits? Climb out of your apple fanboyism, take off the blinders and look around.
