How Apple Brainwashes You

In this video, I break down Apple's psychological business plan and how they use it to win over their customers.

This video will explore the various psychological tricks and phenomena that Apple uses to get customers to buy their products. This should help you avoid falling into traps like this in the future and may be helpful to those starting businesses as they may copy these strategies to get people obsessed with their brands.

If you watched the whole video, you're cool.

Comparing Apple’s marketing to a magic trick and referencing the prestige was genius!
‘It’s not enough to make something disappear… you have to bring it back”
Like magsafe and lots of other features they removed just to bring back. What they do is very close to a mass hypnotism

This is an insanely well made video- I'm shocked you have so few subscribers!- you definitely deserve more

[DELXXI]

finally the algorithm recommending smaller creators with interesting topics, great video keep it up 👍

[inatranceSK]

Thank goodness someone has finally pointed this out. Sick of the Apple cult sooner or later we will no longer have choices. It will just be Apple.

Congratulations, you discovered the “Johnny Harris” recipe. This is hands down one of the best “documentary” style videos I have seen in a long time. I am getting so tired of the typical boring voiceover videos with random stock footage cut together for the sake of having a video, it’s the one reason I primarily only watch Johnny Harris.

You, my friend, have captured that recipe. Right from the first opening sequence, I knew this video was going to be different, and you did not disappoint. I was hooked from the first moment until the very end. Great job!! You got a like and subscribe from me!

This video is based. The delivery, structure and deep insights into the topic and presentation is exceptional.
As a long time Android head, I love my freedom way too much tho, so I don't think apple will ever get me. The inconvenience and restrictions when using apple products is just too crazy for me to want to go through.

Apple obsessiveness should officially be classified as a mental illness by the American Psychological Association.

I bought a iPhone 14 Pro recently and it wasn’t because of luxury or “the wave” I just thought after a long run on android why not try something new. And I think it’s pretty good it isn’t anything major in my life. It’s not about any company it’s about knowing your limits and making good financial decisions

[jaughnekow]

i left the apple garden and i do not regret it at all.

[sanjiscigarette]

THIS IS AMAZING! Your incredibly underrated! i hope the algorithm works in your favor!

[angelocast]

Thank you Dami!
Love what you share here...humans (most of us) are more concerned in tech but they are totally forgetting to grow themselves as person, professional, emotional, spiritual.

There is nothing to say about this video except how brilliant it is. everything from the flow to the structure to the topic and the fact you fully understand your biases towards keeping the apple products and try to minimise it. Wow. Fantastic video i am 100% subscribing and will love to see any more content you make if the quality remains this high.

[emmyjr]

never owned an apple product. i have no reason to. i owe no brand blind loyalty.

I look for what suits my needs and fits my budget.

I'm so sorry that so many people comment about how amazing your video is. Don't get me wrong, it's good, but it was so good it even overshadowed the topic and I find that many people don't even mention your subject in the comments. Meaning, if your video was an act by a magician (let's use your own metaphor here) it would have failed because people are talking more about the tricks, stings and secret motions than about the end result. Now, about the topic at hand because I won't be one of these people commenting about your editing skills instead of Apple: it's clear that the most devout Apple-sims are basically cult-members. They claim Apple is better without knowing the rest of the tech industry (like religious bigots tend to do), they don't know much about how technology work (Steve Jobs loved the word "Magic" -hint, hint- for a reason... don't look under the hood, kids, our laptops are powered my fairy dust) and won't even try something different. And as for devout Apple cultists: You DO have a choice. Everything Apple does exists somewhere else. There's nothing special about this one tech company (it's just one tech company after all). They didn't invent smartphones, the graphics interface, the mouse or touch-screens, even if they like to pretend they did. Try the competition, what do you have to lose? Also, have you noticed that people who are MORE tech-savvy tend to use Apple products LESS? What does that tell you?

[JJRCars]

Wow before I looked at sub count and the views I thought this was made by really popular channel, this is a very well made video and you definitely deserve more than this

[doubleq]

This was such a well-made and edited video. You really went into critical, thinking, and made every talking point to easy to understand, and brought out deep emotions.

[Dellusgd]

Things stop being so deep about phones when you just don't care. they say that apple users are brainwashed and can't escape the ecosystem, that they're trapped in a walled garden, when in reality it's just a tool and your life shouldn't revolve around a brand or product. Just use the phone for what you need and start focusing on what matters, not that hard.

[Gregsimaginaryfriends]

This was truly an incredible and well made video with a highly intriguing topic. Well done mate!

[yeah]

this video is extremely well made! i was super shocked when you (accurately!) started talking about cognitive biases as i had literally just learned about them in my psychology class a few days ago. good stuff! please keep them coming :)

This documentary is so freaking good. This is the kind of things you only find on netflix. Great job
