A developer of dashboard widgets got an email from an employee at an Apple Genius bar saying the following:
My name is Derek Rose, and I work at an Apple Retail store in Nashville, TN. Just wanted to let you know that I just had a customer come in to the Genius Bar with fears that they had been “Hacked” by your widget. I know that sounds silly, but the reason she thought that is because her young son downloaded the widget, and then when the widget said “Hey sexy, What would you like me to say?” she thought that some internet pervert hacker was talking to her son through the widget.
This lady should not be allowed to use a computer.
