Apparently the new iPhone 6 bends now, no this not being one of its additional features. Weeks ago we discussed the topic of validity. I was scrolling through Facebook not long ago and noticed a pattern of news bulletins, statuses and posts all on the same topic, that the iPhone 6 bends uncontrollably. But does it? One person posted a video of him putting heavy force on the new iPhone and consequently, breaks it. This video received thousands of likes and views but like any phone if you tried to bend it, it will. Nothing of this matter has been covered on the news or on TV, online news websites etc. it’s as though someone made a status about their phone slightly bending, and in a matter of time this rumor blew up into a fault that has become apparently global. I definitely am not a frequent Facebook user, and never use Facebook to check the validity of things as there is never any source for the news and as we now know, many hot topics evolve through word of mouth. Who knows what it will be next, i can’t even think of an example.
