Steve Jobs and Blogger in Heated Email Exchange
If Dylan was 20 today, how would he feel about your company? Would he think the iPad had the faintest thing to do with "revolution?" Revolutions are about freedom.
Jobs seems to keep his cool during much of the debate and defends the closed App ecosystem as well as Apple's decisions to restrict certain developers such as Adobe:
Gosh, why are you so bitter over a technical issue such as this? Its not about freedom, its about Apple trying to do the right thing for its users. Users, developers and publishers can do whatever they like - they don't have to buy or develop or publish on iPads if they don't want to. This seems like its your issue, not theirs.
Jobs ends with:By the way, what have you done that's so great? Do you create anything, or just criticize others work and belittle their motivations?

Hi CFreymarc, I think yes. It means that it is the Rolling Stone and GQ will going to call. :D
I'll take the cover shot of myself on the magazine or a fee for my interviews.

Ryan Tate makes me wanna vomit.
Jobs got him good with that "what have you done that's so great" line.
Steve should have his house raided too. :^p
Still, Jobs' replies are pretty pathetic too. Freedom from porn? What a joke. Way to completely fail to understand what freedom means. Maybe I should move to China so I can get freedom from porn, foreign news, and government opposition! I love how he speaks like porn, information theft, and high battery drain apps are only associated with the "PC", LOL!
Is this guy turning senile or does he just get more and more out of touch with the world with each passing day?
I didn't plan to pick a fight with Steve Jobs last night. It just sort of happened: An iPad advertisement ticked me off; I sent the Apple CEO an angry email; he told me about "freedom from porn."
one-on-one email from Ryan Tate to Mr Steve Jobs himself. cool
linky
Somebody had a lil too much to drink and made a fool of himself!
