I for one, am shocked and stunned, that John Gruber is defending Apple.

After all, will you bite the hand that feeds you?

What I like about his blog, is he makes it pretty clear why he's saying what's he's saying, both when defending and criticising Apple. You may disagree with him (I often do), but it would be nice to see you showing disagreement with Gruber's line of argument, rather than just TL;DR part. Makes the argument less tribal.

  • His _why_ is his beliefs. He doesn't _believe_ that Apple would do what was claimed.

    It's hard to rebut him when it's all the language of belief - I have no more facts about the situation than he does. That's the beauty of beliefs, facts are optional.
