Cautionary tale: I took my MacBook Pro in to get the defective keyboard replaced. Apple store techs broke the logic board when opening the case, then sent the machine to a third-party vendor who replaced the SSD without authorization. The whole process took 10 days.

This is the equivalent of going in for a teeth cleaning and waking up without any legs. If you sent me sensitive info as part of Tech Solidarity or the Great Slate, that info is now sitting in a warehouse somewhere with the admin password stuck to it on a post-it note.

For good measure, Apple tried to charge me $495 for this experience, and somehow also scratched up my laptop case as a final 'fuck you'. Since the whole point of payint the Apple premium was to get superior hardware and customer support, I can't imagine buying from them again

You haven't seen true indifference until you've gazed into the eyes of an Apple Store manager promising to try to get your SSD back from a third-party vendor whose phone number he doesn't even have. "I've never seen that work before, but we'll try."
