The company admitted to the leak after people started finding that their information was publicly accessible.
I don’t care about the data leak but this got an audible chuckle out of me:
To support those tried-and-true American values, the golden smartphone features an American flag on the back. There’s just one problem. This particular American flag has just 11 stripes, whereas the real flag has 13 stripes. I guess “American values” don’t allow for an extra set of eyeballs on a design document.
someone should ask our dear leader which of the two original colonies he demanded be left off his phones. because you know if it’s pointed out to him he will never admit the mistake, I will claim it was on purpose and berate the intelligence of whoever asks the question.
my guess would be the missing stripes represent, New York for obvious reasons and Vermont because of Bernie.
This honestly should have just been something like a DBrand skin. But I guess it’s for boomers, who wouldn’t be great at putting a skin on their phone even if they knew how.

Wasn’t “leaking” the data the chefs kiss of this particular grift? Are we understanding this to be an “accident” while there is an entire economy built around it?

I’d have to imagine it was an accident, most companies don’t plan to open themselves up to legal liability in this way.
