Sounds like sound, fury, signifying nothing in the end. The kids get their fifteen minutes. Some people beat up Apple, some don't. Nobody but the players much remembers any of it a month from now.
If the cops were called, hardly fury signifying nothing, as it cost taxpayers $, if nothing else, and for no good reason but to satisfy some manager's ego.
"... man, proud man,
Dressed in a little brief authority,
Most ignorant of what he’s most assured,
His glassy essence, like an angry ape
Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven
As makes the angels weep; who, with our spleens,
Would all themselves laugh mortal."
That's from "Measure for Measure", written over two hundred years ago. There will always be over zealous managers. Cops get called out on stupid trivial stuff 24/7/365; it's a blip on their radar. Nobody died, no students were brutally tasered. The kids get a spoonful of geek cred with their friends. The manager gets told to dial it down a notch. It will all be forgotten by the next news cycle by most people. Sound. Fury. Nothing.
