Acum cateva saptamani v-am spus ca Apple a fost actionata in judecata de un barbat din New York care sustinea ca Siri nu functioneaza asa cum il promoveaza Apple in spoturile sale publicitare. Exact acelasi lucru sustine un posesor al unui terminal iPhone 4S care a intentat un proces impotriva companiei Apple in Los Angeles deci vorbim despre al doilea proces important intentat companiei americane. Utilizatorul sustine ca Apple prezinta in spoturile publicitare anumite functii ale Siri care pot fi indeplinite foarte usor folosind asistentul insa in testele din lumea reala lucrurile sunt complet diferite, asistentul intelegand greu cuvintele utilizatorilor si preluand greu comenzile.
Through its nationwide multimedia marketing campaign, Apple disseminates false and deceptive representations regarding the functionality of the Siri feature. For example, in many of Apple’s television commercials, consumers are shown using Siri to make appointments, find restaurants, and even to learn the guitar chords to classic rock songs. In its advertisements, Apple depicts these tasks as easily accomplished “just by asking” Siri. Apple’s deceptive commercials diverge greatly from the actual functionality and operation of the Siri feature as experienced by Plaintiff and fellow consumers. Siri would either not understand what Plaintiff asked, or, after a long wait, provided the wrong answer.
Americanul care a intentat procesul cere despagubiri de la Apple nu doar pentru el ci si pentru toti cei care au cumparat terminalul in baza “falselor” informatii promotionale prezentate de catre Apple. Compania americana a spus de la bun inceput ca Siri este deocamdata disponibil doar in versiune beta si ca ar putea functiona incorect iar lucrul acesta a fost remarcat de toti cei care utilizeaza asistentul insa unii sunt mult prea nemultumiti.
