I will never understand why people allow themselves to be humiliated, stressed and abused in the name of "being educated" by so called technological geniuses, who are narcissistically used to being worshiped by everyone around them just because they are (ephemerally) famous and have a ton of money. IMHO, neither iPhones in particular, nor smartphones in general have really altered the course of the world in any meaningful way. A couple of generations of youngsters will, indeed, spend half of their lives with their faces glued to mobile screens, but then some new technological trend will arrive replacing the old one or perhaps dumping technology altogether will become the new riot. Sooner or later no one will even remember who Steve Jobs was (while names like William Shakespeare or Ernest Hemingway will deservedly live forever, BTW).
