I am not getting such horrible vibes from the ad.

Maybe the strongest sense is that the iPad comes from the island of broken toys?

Slightly less emphatic but more sinister is that an iPad cannot help but involve itself in the destruction of the arts.

I do agree that the ad does not have any observable moral upside, and it was a mistake to run it.

But then again, if Apple did have a YouTube collection of ads that they chose not to run and discussion of why, it might be easier to trust them. They are so opaque at the moment that trust is a very big ask.
