Popped into my FB feed ... "Why facts don't change our mind"

Yep imagine if I didn’t get new phones for no reason and I was still using my iPhone4… that still works perfectly well but can’t get UK 4G (but could in America)

Different countries use different systems and frequencies. That could easily be a hardware issue (I don't care sufficiently to google).

That would be even spookier … not content with tracking everywhere I go to a few feet it requires “more” hardware to pay a parking charge?

It might, for instance, require a physical security chip dedicated to handling the cryptography between you and the remote servers. I've no idea what Apple are putting in their phones.

Stop for a minute and think what is driving demand?
What exactly is it demands a pensioner needs to buy a new smartphone for every couple of years?

Whatever is driving demand, I'm fairly sure it's not pensioners. Maybe it's people expecting their six year old phone to do everything a modern one does?

It’s very obviously incorrect factually…

And this is coming from a teacher. What's their job, again?

Which would doubtless end with me calling someone a moron and being told I’m not respecting her religious beliefs.

You can respect her beliefs whilst challenging the fact she's wrong. I'd rather have thought you'd paraphrase the 'moron' bit a little more delicately.

Probably more to the point though to what end?

It's not just your child she's lying to.
