What a
calamity.
Samsung was
dragging its heels even with new reports that its Note 7 telephones were all
the while consuming. Maybe even Samsung itself couldn't exactly trust that one
of the world pioneers in hardware could have made such a disastrous item
security blunder… twice.
They say
it's the council that gets you, and it creates the impression that all the
proactive work Samsung did to moderate the Note 7 disaster has been fixed by
being slower to recognize that the gadgets are still unsafe.
This story
is no more pretty much the Note 7. It's about the trust shoppers have in
Samsung's extensive variety of items - assume that is by all accounts, pardon
me, going up in smoke.
