The current regime in Washington, DC continues to play favorites in the economy. Just like their efforts to undermine (pun intended) the entire coal industry and pour billions of dollars into unproven, experimental “green” projects, they are now helping their perceived friends in technology. Despite an order from U.S. International Trade Commission that Apple be banned from selling certain older iPhones and iPads the President has taken it on himself to help the iFruit company.
Styled a "veto," the move is not unheard of, but it is rare. The last time a presidential veto of a product ban was invoked was 1987, the Wall Street Journal reports.
In a June 4 ruling, the commission banned the importation into the U.S. of the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad 3G and iPad 2 3G distributed by AT&T. The move effectively banned the sale of those items in the U.S. that were designed to work with AT&T service, Yahoo News has reported.
