The iPhone suicide
Much has been written about the iPhone suicide already and instead of repeating all this I’d rather like to refer you to Perspective on the iPhone Suicide, a very good comment by Jason Chen on Gizmodo.
Let me just ask two question here: how far have we, as a civilization, as a people come that a young man had to die over an electronic gadget? Have our values really deteriorated to a point where the future version of a narcissistic icon – or as Chen puts it “a fucking phone” – is worth more than a human life?
Homo Sapiens indeed!
