iPhone 4S: A BIG BIG BIG Disappointment for Apple fans!!

Apple's Bundle of Disappointments:
  • After the long awaited iPhone5, apple is releasing iPhone 4S instead; which is quite a disappointment for all the apple lovers.
  •  I myself an apple fan but when i read the specs of iPhone 4S i was like "WTF Apple? Are you kidding me?" 
  • Seriously the only thing they have done over a year about which apple is so much bragging about is a better processor (dual core A5) and the camera (8MP) which both themselves are disappointments as this is a year old technology even a 12 MP camera was introduced by Nokia and year ago in its N8 and double core processor by Galaxy SII are the new standards.
  • The same underwhelming 3.5" screen.
  • Also there is no shape changes neither a thinner nor a better looking one not even lighter!!  
So it was all a media hype or you may say too high expectations of apple lovers. I don't know if i should be blaming Apple for just bringing minor changes or all the people who raised my expectations too high!

Apple's Smart (yet not so smart) Move:
 What was apple thinking when they launched iPhone 4S? how are they gonna secure the market? Well  they put an application called SIRI which they call 'intelligent assistant' and that's the only feature worth upgrading for. But wait a minute is not that the same application that was introduced quite a while ago in 3GS! Yeah that's right my friend it was an old app published for iPhone 3GS or later but with limited functionality. Now Apple has reintroduced it in iPhone 4S and made it incompatible with iPhone 4 or 3GS.  "The Apple's so called smart move to force people to upgrade to iPhone 4S" 

The Apple's only Good Thing this year:
Launch of iOS 5 is the only good thing apple is gonna do this year which will be able to preserve its market shares because of a tremendous(200+) new features they are offering of which the worth mentioning is the iMessage especially designed to compete with BBM (Black Berry Messenger)  but one thing for sure apple is definitely not gonna win any new fans/customers this year until the launch of a better iphone5 with all its expected features!

Why Facebook is being Blocked/Banned in Pakistan! Solution?!

Pakistani courts, who previously banned Facebook for 13 days (May 19, 2010 to May 31, 2010) in response to the page called 'Everybody Draw Muhammad Day', are now again taking actions for a more permanent nature of ban on Facebook. A compliance report will presented in the court on October 6, 2011. Further action will than be taken.

On may 31, 2010 Pakistan finally lifted the ban but the blasphemous pages were remain hidden.
The question arises that when those pages are already hidden than what is the need of a complete ban on Facebook. And reason behind this action is that after that Facebook blasphemous event's popularity, many people created blasphemous pages just to screw with Muslims by dishonouring their Holy figures and some for the sake of popularity.
How they get popularity? is a very interesting phenomena! U see if you create a page/site against Islam and just send a link to any Muslim they will make it viral by spamming the link to each and all the people they know just to request them to take down the page. And what you get is thousands of Muslims visiting your site and improving the rating with each visit, though it may end up blocked after so many abuse reports!

This has resulted in hundreds of new blasphemous pages being created on Facebook each day. Adding insult to injury is the attitude of Facebook, which is very uncooperative rather insulting for the Muslim community as they mostly don't take down such pages even after being 'reported abused' thousands of time. Not to mention that all these pages are against the TOS of Facebook.

This incident is not the first in its nature. Before this Danish papers published caricatures of the Holy Prophet of Muslims and even after many protests by the Muslim community the cartoons were republished by other newspaper. Later it became a delightful thing for some people to outrage Muslims by such events. Later some cartoon were published by a website claiming that holocaust was fabricated and denied the holocaust but was not considered a criminal offense because it was intended to be a contribution to public debate regarding a perceived double standard in the distribution of the Danish Mohammad cartoons.  

So after the govt has realized that its hard blocking/taking down all those pages being created each day. They have come up with a solution of permanent ban on Facebook.
Is this the complete solution to prevent further blasphemies by the soulless wild animals round the globe eager to invoke the Muslims and then label them with terrorist? Ofcourse not! As it may not be that easy to create a page on facebook but building a new website is not that difficult nowadays. So the next step would be to block the internet access?? and then may be the newspaper??

The more appropriate solution would be to identify the culprits behind such actions and brought them to justice. So that no one else do this again. This should be considered a cyber crime. If a website or a page against holocaust doesn't last a week then why does blasphemous pages against Islam last like forever?
