More on the Gizmodo CES Prank

Gizmodo's Brian Lam has written an apology for the TV-Be-Gone stunt at the Consumer Electronics Show last week which is one of the least apologetic apologies since the death of Socrates. Lam claims that running through the exhibition hall with a remote control was an act of civil disobedience: "Our prank pays homage to the notion of independence and independent reporting. ... In this job, integrity and independence is far more important than civil or corporate obedience." If you say so.

Fake Steve Jobs, ready for Macworld, gives Lam a stern warning:

I just want to send out this warning to Gizmodo and anyone else who might be thinking about blasting out TV screens at Macworld: Think twice, losers. Because we will not be banning you from our show. We'll be fucking tasering you right there on the floor. Then, when you're lying there on the floor in shock, we'll carry you off the floor and put you on a plane and rendition your ass to someplace so awful you'll be praying for death. I mean it.
