Apple fined $6.6 mn over faulty iPhones, iPads in Australia
Apple has been fined $6.6 million by a court in Australia for misleading consumers regarding their warranty rights over faulty iPhones and iPads. The complaints were related to an error ('error 53') which disabled some iPhones and iPads after an iOS update. Consumer groups claimed Apple refused to fix the devices if they had been repaired by a third party.
