You didn't build that, someone else did.
There aren’t' too many devices that you can look at and instantly 'get' that they led to near-instantaneous changes in the way the world functions and behaves. Radios and TVs certainly did, as did the affordable automobile. We can toss in the microwave oven, the X-ray camera, and the personal computer as well. Most recently, the honor would have to go to the cell phone and, in particular, the iPhone.
Apple's baby is widely regarded as the most ubiquitous, and most forward-thinking, of the now borderline-essential cellular handsets. For better or worse, it's transformed the way we do business, play games, take pictures, and interact with our friends and families.

Apple INVENTED the iphone, irrespective of what component parts were invented by US government black projects - or are all the inventors of the wheel, combustion engine, electronics etc also the inventors of the car?

Every time Pelosi opens her mouth, I am embarrassed for anyone outside of the U.S. to hear it. The woman is a disgrace. She deserves a facepalm award.

She needs a Darwin award (wink wink )😉😉
OP?
Is it possible for Apple Or Steve Jobs estate to file a Slanderous lawsuit?
When you first look at it this seems like a strong argument. Government backed research produced all of the basic technologies that went into the iPhone. So, why doesn’t the government get a decent slice of Apple AAPL -1.06% for having spent that money that way?
