Default Apple told to warn against charging phone in bath after man's electrocution

The reason the woman was burned, if I recall correctly, is because the
coffee's temperature was too hot


It is impossible for a beverage made with boiling water to be 'too
hot'. That cup of coffee was the woman's responsibility the moment she
paid for it. Not McDonalds, not the car company. Her pain was the
result of her choices. We are all diminished by the fact that she
successfully blamed someone else.

As for our electrocution victim, I do not know what UK chargers look
like, but in the US if the charger was in the tub, so was the end of
the extension cord. Death was inevitable regardless of manufacturer.
