The upcoming issue of the New York Times Magazine will feature a horribly conceived and poorly thought out article detailing why Apple wants "to bust your iPhone."
Yep, the premise of the article is that Apple designs the iPhone to fail just around the time it happens to be releasing a new model.
Authored by Catherine Rampell, the article begins with a personal story from Rampell. She relays that her once trusty iPhone 4 began acting up with the release of iOS 7. Performance was slower. Battery life was lower.
From there, Rampell hops on the conspiracy train and doesn't look back, articulating that Apple is engaging in "planned obsolescence".
