And a petition won't make a difference
You're kidding right? Petitions make no difference?
http://www.avaaz.org/en/highlights.php or
http://www.change.org/victories. Enough signatures and they will without doubt pay attention, companies like Apple take their PR very seriously.
The gotcha is you need to get in the 100k sigs mark which is difficult with something as niche as bitcoin, got to try though right? Oh and ditch/jailbreak your iToys too of course, you throw
everything at them...
Apple doesn't care. They even managed to shut up Martha Stewart when she started complaining on her twitter account. When has Apple EVER given a petition a second thought?
If they did, people wouldn't need to jailbreak their phones in the first place. Millions of people jailbreak for exactly that reason: Petitions do not matter when it comes to Apple - they have other ways of "handling their PR"("We will sue you for every pie you've ever made if you ever again say publicly that iPads are made of glass, Martha Stewart!")
