Casey Neistat’s latest video isn’t really news to anyone nor does it appear that Apple can or will do anything about the problem but perhaps this years delayed launch in China has exacerbated it even more.  What can Apple do in this situation?

Another video of the 5th Avenue line below:

';
jQuery('body').append( content );
} else if ( ! navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone/) && ! dd_banner_cookie ) {
var content = '';
jQuery('body').append( content );
var $hide = jQuery( document.getElementById( 'hide-dd-banner' ) );
$hide.on( 'click', function( event ) {
event.preventDefault();
var $ddBanner = jQuery( document.getElementById( 'daily-deal-banner' ) ),
date = new Date();
date.setDate(date.getDate() + 10); // add 10 days to today to expire the cookie.
var value = "true; expires=" + date.toUTCString() + "; path=/";
document.cookie = "hide-dd-banner=" + value;
$ddBanner.animate( {left:'-50px'} );
});
}
