Good i'm glad Apple did this.

"We weighed the risks, blithely tossed those risks over our shoulder, and tore down the Apple TV anyway,"

The NDA had the terms and conditions in it that expressly forbade them from doing what they did and yet they still did it anyway. Basically that means that ifixit will go back on their word or will not respect any kind of secrecy agreement. They have just lost any shred of credibility they may have had.

Also, the fact that they said their app has many bugs caused by iOS9 means nothing for Apple and basically is a way of stating "we are too lazy to update our app to make it work." B**t hurt much, ifixit?
