A Cautionary Tale

Rating: 10/10 (16 November 2015)

This is a cautionary tale of sorts given we all know the basic turn of events. The focus and highlight rest on Steve Jobs' humanity or lack thereof. This is not about his visionary genius but his simultaneous flaws as a fellow human being. Seriously, how dare we idolize such a a despicable person? Are the revolutionary gadgets worth the price? Depends who you are in the mix but for the majority of us it just so happened the person and product were a packaged deal and his inherent flaws were foreign to us. How much of our humanity are we willing to sacrifice for the sake of technological progress? Apparently if it's worth it we are willing to sacrifice or rather forgive a whole lot.
