So why they hell do companies do this? Do people actually fall for this scumbag marketing strategy?

Why when it comes to performance, are companies allowed to be so misleading with data on how much better their new product is? E.g: "Oh look how much faster the new iPhone is with the new A-faggotX chip!"

If you haven't noticed the problem with the picture, the graph has no x or y axis... This was at the apple event. And this happens every time.

Even when it comes to numbers when you run benchmarks on computers, the numbers seem so meaningless. "Oh look! A score of 16,478. Thats how powerful it is!". So 16,478 what? Peanuts?

So yea, I suppose post times when companies use misleading or meaningless numbers?

This is primarily to please stock holders. Consumers usually cannot be bothered with presentations like this.

I didn't think about the stock holders. Good point.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
