Apple's crackdown on slowing down older iPhone

After Apple's confirmation that it slows down older to prevent sudden interruptions due to "drops" , the company is reportedly being sued by at least five people in the US.

According to Chicago Sun-Times, five Apple customers from different parts of the United States filed a lawsuit in Chicago on Thursday demanding an unspecified amount of money for the damage caused by a company by deliberately slowing down the older iPhone devices.apple

Plaintiffs, two from Illinois and three others from Indiana, North Carolina, and Ohio, claim that Apple's practices are "misleading and immoral" and violate consumer protection laws.

All of them are represented by lawyer (Greek), Mr. James Vlahakis, who stated that Apple does not offer transparency to its customers.

"Companies need to realize that people who spend their hard-earned money on a , expect it to work as expected," said attorney James Vlahakis.

"Apple seems to have hidden the reasons for the slowdown of its older phones."

The lawsuit also alleges that Apple "forced consumers to buy newer and more expensive iPhones when a battery replacement could allow them to continue using their older iPhones."

Cupertino has not issued a statement so far and may not say anything until this is settled .

I imagine that Mr Vlahakis will settle the matter very easily, as there is already confirmation from Cupertino.
