That TUAW article is total BS. No research or real logic went into the writing of that post at all. I'm not saying that Siri is in fact censoring or not censoring abortion clinics, but that article does not add anything worthwhile to the situation.

Says the person whose stance is essentially that slutty women deserve punishment.

In other words... you think women should be unwillingly stuck with the burden of having a child.

Um, so every woman who gets pregnant without being raped wants to have a child? Oh, I didn't realize you knew exactly what every woman wants.

I can't believe in fucking 2011 there are still people who think that women should be unwillingly stuck with the burden of having a child.

I don't think patents are what you think they are. The basic idea of a patent is to stifle competition, in more or less terms. If you invest heavily on research for a new invention, you don't want competition. You want a guarantee that you have exclusive rights to that invention for a certain period of time, during…

You do realize that if the patent office determined there to be "prior art" they wouldn't have granted the patent, right? There is no "loophole" required; Apple invented it, and Apple received a patent for it. It really is not the evil conspiracy you people make it out to be. If you think you have proof of "prior…

Not when compared to an iPhone. Just try pinching to zoom on the browser or maps app.

To combat "fragmentation," Apple could simply introduce a third app screen resolution along with the current 3.5" and 9.7" sizes. Say, 4.5" at 1280x720, which is the same ppi as the current 3.5" retina display. That would make the larger screen size actually useful, since developers can create apps specifically for…

Firstly, sentences, dude. Secondly, the iPhone 4 screen elements are identical in size to previous iPhones and even the iPad.

Right, that wasn't the point. You're just saying that idiotic people exist everywhere. Thanks for stating the obvious.

But the proximity sensor only checks whether or not your phone is close to something. That's why during calls the display goes off if you even just put your hand above the proximity sensor. It doesn't actually check whether or not the phone is up to your face, and if this new sensor does, I would think it's something…

I wonder if this is the reason the 4S has awful battery life.

The old proximity sensor only senses when something is close to it, not whether the phone is actually at your face. If you're in a call and your phone is on the table, for example, the screen will still shut off if you just place your hand over the proximity sensor. That wouldn't allow for a "Raise to Speak"…

The whole attraction of Apple products is their simplicity. That's why it's perfectly fine for people to be "dazzled." You don't have to do tons of research and become super knowledgeable about phones in order to use and be happy with an iPhone. It's straightforward, reliable, given prompt software updates for at…

Then you don't know what a virus is. It is true that Macs can't get viruses. You're probably confusing viruses with trojans or other malware that requires users to install it themselves.

It's ironic that you would criticize people for not looking at "technical details" and then say how you can't wait to ditch dual-core Android phones for single-core WP7 phones.

Hm? Last time I checked, that wasn't possible. The only way to get "push" via IMAP is with IDLE, which the iPhone doesn't support. Your phone manually refreshes for new emails in a set interval, which is fetch, not push.

"Realism" and "fun" are not opposite ends of a continuum like you are suggesting.
