Interesting article. Thanks for posting @adamtemp64. This little faux pas could wind up costing Apple some money.

In a statement, Apple said that "error 53" occurs when a device fails a standard security test designed to ensure that the Touch ID fingerprint scanner is working correctly.

However, the company added: "We apologise for any inconvenience, this was designed to be a factory test and was not intended to affect customers.

And the band played 'Believe it if you like'.......

Pot calling the kettle black comes to mind here

Just gotta love 'em ....

So, security is now not an issue?
Or are they worried customers might go elsewhere.

It was the general uproar that gave them a change of heart

There's the same general uproar about the FBI scenario.
