Apple Bricked my iPhone

Fight disinformation: Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily newsletter and follow the news that matters.


Tell you what, Apple. If you’ll just release my iPhone 1.0 from whatever iTunes automatic software upgrade hell you’ve got its soul synced into today, you can keep your fancypants 3G, the GTD app I’m dying to try, and that phone-as-a-remote thing people seem to like so much.

I know your servers are down. You’re busy with all your new friends, I get it.

I just want my commuter podcasts back and the chance to make a phone call, OK?

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.

Today, reader support makes up about two-thirds of our budget, allows us to dig deep on stories that matter, and lets us keep our reporting free for everyone. If you value what you get from Mother Jones, please join us with a tax-deductible donation today so we can keep on doing the type of journalism 2024 demands.
