The often highly anticipated release of Apple products always manages to create a stir among their fans and enemies alike. So the excitement surrounding the announcement of the iPhone 5c and 5s yesterday comes as no surprise.

 

Some fans cannot wait their hands on the latest product, some are even lining up at Apple?s New York store weeks in advance before it is due to be released to the public. We begin to ask questions as to why this occurs, and if the hype surrounding the fingerprint sensor is really justified. And that?s where the parody videos come in.

 

This YouTube video, which has attracted 2,093 points on Reddit at the time of publication, has caused quite a buzz. The video depicts a man posing as the "senior vice president design" of the iPhones. Something tells us they might be Samsung fan boys!

 

Parodies aside, readers should not allow these videos influence what their next smartphone purchase should be. Read the facts and compare the specs of your desired phones side by side. Go into a store and see how it feels in your hands. Read and watch reviews on the phones and see what the experts have to say about it. This way, you will be guaranteed to get a phone that's most suited for you.

    • As someone who isn't in the EU what is all this gatekeeper stuff about anyways?
    • The data center gold rush has tossed all forms of sensibility and reasoning right out of the window. The craziest part being that AI infrastructure isn't driven by consumer demand. It's being driven by manufacturers to force AI onto the market, consumers be damned.
    • Apple has not said whether the new prices are temporary ..... LOL.... These are the new prices peeps, because they will still sell them. Everybody will get used to the price hike = more Profit!
    • EU says AWS and Microsoft Azure should be treated as DMA gatekeepers by Pradeep Viswanathan Under the European Commission's Digital Markets Act (DMA), a company is presumed to be a gatekeeper if it meets certain quantitative thresholds. However, the Commission can still investigate and designate a company even if it does not meet the numeric thresholds, provided the service has a major market impact. The European Commission launched its investigations into AWS and Azure on November 18, 2025, to address unfair or anti-competitive practices in the cloud sector. Today, the European Commission has informed Amazon and Microsoft of its preliminary view that their cloud computing services, AWS and Azure, should be designated as gatekeepers under the DMA. The EC highlighted that Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure are the largest and second-largest cloud computing services in the European Union. Both of these platforms act as important gateways between businesses and their customers in the EU. The EC further mentioned that AWS and Azure have reached significant turnover, built large and entrenched user bases, and benefit from high switching costs and customer lock-in. Furthermore, their operational capacity and investments appear to have outpaced those of competitors. Teresa Ribera, Executive Vice-President for Clean, Just and Competitive Transition, said the following: It is important to note that the findings are preliminary and do not decide the final outcome. Amazon and Microsoft can now review the findings and respond to the Commission. However, if the Commission confirms its preliminary findings, it will formally designate Amazon and Microsoft as gatekeepers for AWS and Azure. Once designated, Microsoft and Amazon will have six months to bring their cloud services into full compliance with the DMA’s rules and regulations.
