Now i'm one of those people who has never really liked apple. Nor for their products or services or for their "Safari security flaws" But i had 2 apple iPhones (iPhone 5 / 4s) and i thought of myself , i think it's time for me to make an adjustment to having a closed source phone to having a open source phone (YAY BLACK PHONE / ANDROID) So i thought i would post a video of myself destroying both of these iPhones , And i hope that you guys deeply enjoy it...because i did. Unfortunately due to me breaking my iPhone , i have downgraded to a siemens burner phone , and i hate it. (Really hard to pick up chicks with a phone from 1990's) ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) I'm asking for a donation from our members , so i can also upgrade my phone (Encrypted everything wooop!) , and also start building my business with bitcoin. Shout outs to Cryptocurrency , BTC , Coindesk.com , Reddit , Digg , and everyone in favor and supporting bitcoin. Thank you very much and have a wonderful day! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) (VIDEO SHALL BE UPLOADED MOMENTARILY.

Why would you break a working phone if you didn't have another working phone?

Why would you break a working phone if you didn't have another working phone? I think the intention is to make Apple as a brand name worse. As a company, you want to have your brand associated with good things; But i had 2 apple iPhones (iPhone 5 / 4s) and i thought of myself , i think it's time for me to make an adjustment to having a closed source phone to having a open source phone (YAY BLACK PHONE / ANDROID) The hardware is still closed. There is no way to go around the tracking or standard text-messaging surveillance. But Apple produces one of the most closed systems, which are to some very convenient, but with zero freedom. I boycott Apple for years.

When they took off the Bitcoin app on their market , i realized that i had to get rid of my current iPhone and make sure that i would never go back to their products. Also bitmichel is right also. But i have a working phone , it's just a downgrade from touch screen to buttons. (Also apps etc , and also only talk and text on my current phone) Why would you break a working phone if you didn't have another working phone?

I have an iPhone just because I hate the sluggish feeling many Android phones have. If I had to go with one, it would be an HTC, which I really like. I would never go for an S5, though, but don't attack me. I do hate the fact that Apple doesn't like Bitcoin but I am not really bothered by it being closed source. I have my phone jailbroken.

I don't mean to sound bigoted
but you're a fucking faggot, OP.
Go earn some money to replace your two now-broken phones. This is why the third world hates the first world.
Jesus... faggot.
P.S. I had to re-read what you posted to make sure I wasn't wrong. Turns out I was right.

By the end of next month at the latest we will have permanently left behind 3 digits. You can quote me on this.

Freedom to do what you want does. Good to have someone thinking like me.

If you want to "fuck apple" sell their product, don't destroy their product. Decrease demand for their product and do slightly less damage to the planet, moron.

Sorry that you might think of me as a "faggot" but fuck you. I wish to reinvent my life. Also to say fuck you to the big corporations that fill our "first world" with problems. (Antibiotics / Fluoride / Gas / Poverty / War) etc. I could get deep into it , but i wish to truly "live". Now i do work , unfortunately. But i see life becoming very dark in the near future. I have some funds stashed away to make sure that if anything happens , I can always have a plan b. But i don't have enough to truly "live" Now i'm not a "live in excess" type of guy , i would rather enjoy the time , that i have on this earth to really appreciate and enjoy the things that the earth has to offer. Rather then being stuck in a society where greed controls the man , and people have become slaves to a piece of paper..(After the gold standard was dropped from the bills of course) Least with this , It's gold 2.0. I'm not begging for some money , I'm saying if you think that i am right with my message , and also agree with me , and would like to contribute to the "fuck apple cause" then by all means. But for you calling me a faggot though , fuck you. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) The main reason why i posted the video was to brand apple as a villanous identity to the world , and also for slowing the world just slightly , with not accepting of future technologies.

you should have jail broken the phone to run android, anyway its funny enough just walking into a phone store to buy a new phone and they show you the apples and u see the prices and have a laughing fit, puffin browser is pretty cool to run flash, n u can use the smart deck or whatever it is, to turn ur smart phone into a desktop computer I haven't thrown the laptop out yet to do it, but it can only be a few more months before I ll never own a desktop or laptop again ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif)

Not a chance. I do take pleasure in the fact that you destroyed two phones that, unless they were already broken, could have been worth in excess of $200, and then come around begging for money. So, in my opinion I would not waste anything on you because you do not seem like a very smart guy.

You are begging for some money. You smashed your phone, and now you want someone to buy you a new one. Maybe you should re-invent your life a third time -- this time with a little more responsibility.

You really are OP and I'm not sorry for saying so. You want to create a healthy bitcoin ecosystem? Sell your iphones and reinvest the money into bitcoin or donate to charity instead of smashing your phones like some first world self entitled idiot. You're honestly like a child throwing a temper tantrum and by the way you're a little late to the party; Apple got rid of the blockchain app a few months ago. Where were you when the first round of fanatics jumped on the smash your iphone bandwagon?

I must agree with the posts that this was a foolish act. You destroyed hundreds of dollars worth of electronics that someone less fortunate could have used and then you beg for money to replace them. I have teenage nieces and nephews that would point out the infantile thinking in that.

I just decided that the manufacturer of my vehicle is an evil company.
If I destroy my car (and post a YouTube video of me doing it), will you all donate enough bitcoins to me so I can buy myself a brand new Tesla Model S?
