Absolutely correct. I made one post yesterday into a forum article discussing reverting to iOS6 and it was entirely removed overnight. What happened to freedom of speech.

Nothing has happened to freedom of speech. You are perfectly free to start your own blog or forum, proclaim your views in a public park or wear a sandwich board. However, this is an Apple owned and run forum. The Terms of Use to which you agreed when you joined allow Apple to moderate your posts as they see fit, just as you have the right to forbid certain topics of conversation at your dinner table.


There a lots of forums not owned by Apple where you can post about a broader range of topics. iLounge is one I can think of.


Best of luck.

You said it, Im sure Steve is turning in his grave. If anyone can find/show me whats Innovative about SLICK copying different features from EVERY operating system then I would not say anything else about the Update. In Addition this particular update has made several business professionals feel like they have their childs phone instead of their own. They should have also adopted Androids naming process and called this update. Candy Crush iOS 7 bc thats what the screen looks like. What is sad is Im almost confident if Steve was alive he would have thought of something WAY more innovative to include in this Software Update

You have no idea what Steve Jobs would have thought or done.

Well, I just downgraded... *sigh* I went to the Apple Store in Tampa saturday morning, and they told me there was no way to downgrade to iOS6. My only recourse was to leave "feedback" which I have done. Gave myself until this morning (monday) to get used to 7... I chatted with an apple rep this morning, just to see if there is anything I can do, and they said the same thing. You can leave feedback, but No way to go back...I have now spent 5 days with iOS7, and there is no way I will ever like this. No way. It just making me angry. (It's making me want to smash my phone) So, as of 10:20am this morning, I bought out the 13 months left on my AT&T contract, and started a new contract downgrading to an S3. *sigh*... I will be listing my black, 64gb iphone5 on ebay later today... that's how I finally got my downgrade... I had a good 26 year run with apple, but if this is the direction they are going, I want no part of it.

You are most likely right. There was quite a similar uproar

when iTunes 11 was totally changed, and none of the old suff

came back with it. Maybe the first update to iOS7 may, and emphasize

may, tone down some of the icons, but the flat look is here to stay.


People will adjust and those that don't won't. It is just human

nature.

I just have to add my voice, too, to the shock at how truly ugly (painfully so) this update's visual impact is! It truly makes the Apple products look cheap - not artistically stunning as they used to be. Even if the functionality proves to be innovative, I can hardly stomach opening it up to even peruse it now to find out. I love Apple - just really hope they quickly reconsider their visual design choices.
