Loading ...Man, these analysts from Strand Consulting seems to have gone nuts. They are now terming iPhone users, as cases suffering Stockholm Syndrome. For those who dont know about this syndrome, it was used in reference to hostages that form bizarre attachments to their captors. Gizmodo discovered this Analysts who shares this:
“Apple has launched a beautiful phone with a fantastic user interface that has had a number of technological shortcomings that many iPhone users have accepted and defended, despite those shortcomings resulting in limitations in iPhone users’ daily lives.”
“When we examine the iPhone users’ arguments defending the iPhone, it reminds us of the famous Stockholm Syndrome – a term that was invented by psychologists after a hostage drama in Stockholm. Here hostages reacted to the psychological pressure they were experiencing, by defending the people that had held them hostage for 6 days.”
Man, isnt this called being a fan of something? Have these analysts gone utterly crazy? And this happens with major projects and breakthrough inventions as well and not just with the iPhone.
