Apple Ex-CEO Steve Jobs Assists In Arrest of Samsung Galaxy Tab Users
Although the European ban on the sales of the Samsung Galaxy Tab was temporarily lifted, it is still currently illegal to buy the popular Android tablet in Germany. Steve Jobs, Apple’s former CEO, who is known for his harsh attitude when it comes to intellectual property infringement, grabbed the opportunity to personally enforce the ban.
Behold, the Forbidden Device. At least, in Germany.
Jobs was in a video conference with Apple managers in Berlin, when he noticed people walking by the window with a Samsung Galaxy Tab. Joachim Schulz, head of the Apple Store in Berlin told me that “… I tried to calm him down, I said ‘it must be an iPad, don’t worry’, but it was already too late. Mr. Jobs ran out of the meeting and immediately ordered his private jet to fly to Germany.”
Upon arrival in Tegel Airport, Jobs rushed to the Kurfürstendam and started searching computer shops. He described vividly to the anxious public how lightning from the iCloud would punish Samsung Galaxy Tab users for their sins.

Then, a few young man appeared from an electronics shopping, proudly carying their brandnew Forbidden Devices. An eye witness told me, “At first, I thought it was funny when Steve and his fanboys started throwing apples at them, but it wasn’t a joke. More like a fruity stoning. Fortunately the police soon arrived. ‘Ah! Justice will be served!’ Steve said, while holding down the boys on the ground. I saw him pushing iPads with sharpened edges in their necks. Oh, and I thought he was such a friendly man.”

After the police took the young men away for medical care, while charging them for purchase of illegal electronics, Jobs setup a small bonfire, in which the Samsung Galaxy Tabs were disposed. He seemed very energetic. “A crusade through Europe sounds great to me”, he told reporters with a big grin, “It’s time for the Tablet Wars. I’ll be just like Bush, you know – Shock and Apple.“
