Installing Third-Party Games Into An iPhone In An Apple Store Gets Students Life Ban

Four teenagers were handed out a severe punishment, for a very minor “offense” recently. The offense involved downloading a third-party car racing game onto iPhones at Apple’s University Avenue store. The punishment? A permanent ban from all Apple stores worldwide, for life.

It seems like an overreaction on the manager’s part to give such a drastic punishment for such a small issue. To make matters worse, the company announced that it will be encouraging customers to download similar third-party applications onto their iPhones, starting next month.

An Apple spokesman has denied these accounts saying “They were not banned from that store or any other store,” while refusing to elaborate.
