In a possible thawing of relations between Apple and the F.B.I., Apple C.E.O. Tim Cook offered to replace the damaged iPhone for seven hundred and forty-nine dollars, or two hundred and ninety-nine dollars with a two-year contract.

You should. Look at the URL, it's in the New Yorker's Humor section and this line at the end is a dead giveaway.

C'mon. This one wasn't even difficult.

And there's this clue at the end: "GET NEWS SATIRE FROM THE BOROWITZ REPORT DELIVERED TO YOUR INBOX."
