A couple days ago, I reported how Apple had reached a settlement to take the Think Secret site offline. The site was an Apples rumors site, and Apple didn’t like it and went after them with their legal team. This pissed off a lot of bloggers, and understandably so.

This morning, I found an awesome post on the blog of the fake Steve Jobs. He announces that Apple is offering an amnesty program to the rest of the blogger community. He states:

In the wake of our devastating loss to Nick dePlume of Think Secret (photo) we are considering rolling out an amnesty program to other Apple bloggers in which they would accept a cash payment in return for a promise never to write another word about Apple for as long as they live. Naturally after this they too could claim victory and hail themselves as champions of the First Amendment. Payments TBD based on how much of a pain in the ass you are to us. Highly ethical and unbiased journos like Goatberg, Smurfy Pogue and Daniel Eran Dilger obviously are not eligible to participate. But the rest of you scumbags? Drop a dime. Let’s talk.

Obviously, this post is tongue-in-cheek, but I think it accurately conveys the frustration with Apple.

Apple is about as social media friendly as the communist Chinese. Don’t get in their way or they’ll mow you over with a tank.
