It's a great ad. 620 comments on hacker news, got me to watch it voluntarily even though I never see ads. Even got me to share it with someone else.

Ads don't exist to make you feel good, they exist to make you notice them.



Except that it makes some of the most relevant Apple customers see them as an enemy that is out to crush their dreams... and are sharing it so their friends get the memo and feel the same way.


I watched it and then resolved to never buy an iPad again. I'm sharing it with people who will make the same resolution.
