Definitely applauding them on going hard and testing their stuff.
I'm thinking of how Sony and Nintendo had piracy issues that completely ruined their hardware sales. Then again, they can kinda get away with it in the short run by continuing to release quality software.
Apple doesn't have that luxury as they've cemented themselves as making good bundled hardware+software. If any part of that gets crippled, they're fucked.
Are there numbers showing any meaningful harm to Sony or Nintendo?
