Apple Tells Siri To Stop Recommending Nokia

Posted by samzenpus on from the pick-the-other-guy dept.

judgecorp writes "Apple has changed the answer Siri gives to the question 'What is the best smartphone ever?' to prevent the voice-driven assistant from promoting the Nokia Lumia 900. Originally Siri trawled online reviews on the web, using the Wolfram Alpha search engine, to come up with the Lumia, much to Apple's embarrassment. Now, Apple has intervened, replacing that answer with a joke: 'Wait there are other phones?'"

    Does anyone actually believe that the Nokia Lumia is the best phone on the market?

    I didn't think so.

    Aktually no. Not when one of their advertisement points is on just how great your new ego stroker will be. Because it meets all your needs. Apple is a junk company. Apple's marketing strategy mondblowing demonstrates how sad our narcy culture has become.
