“Finland’s prime minister Alexander Stubb has blamed Apple’s iPhone for killing its once mighty mobile industry and the iPad for problems in its paper industry. In Stubb’s view, his country’s economic woes leading up to yesterday’s S&P credit rating downgrade from AA+ to AAA may be traceable to Apple’s two biggest revenue earners undermining Finland’s two main exports — paper and mobile. He told CNBC yesterday that “we have two champions which went down” due to the products.” [1]
