Apple BREAKS under pressure from Augmented Reality Activist AR Protest!!!?!!

Less than 2 weeks after the launch of the AR Apple Store intervention and the infamous Apple Hopppala "crash" of 2012 Apple finally backed down!
The Augmented Reality Activists have declared a tiny victory in the fight against evil. Apple's token will not stop the AR protest! The Apple Store AR nets stay up until the Foxconn nets come down!! [seen on AR Intervention Layar]
The "Foxconn worker in the Apple Store" is currently live at the 8th Ave Apple Store.
