Sierra Sued For Making A Bad Phone
There are lots of reasons that people come up with to sue companies, but this attempt at a class action lawsuit against Sierra Wireless seems like a stretch. Clearly, Sierra had a bad quarter, missing their numbers and all of that. But, to get a bunch of people together and sue the company for that bad quarter by blaming their inability to make a good Voq smartphone seems like a stretch. However, if it works, just think of all those other companies you'll be able to sue just because they made awful products that didn't help the bottom line.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
