You thought Woz was Canadian?

It's the guys name. Using ones own name cannot be linkbaity or misleading.



Many people interpret 'ca' as 'California'. The same way 'it' it not always Italy, and 'mx' is not always Mexico.


It is when your name is identical to the co-Founder's name. It's link-baity by the fact that many people were baited into clicking that link under false pretenses.

I'm not accusing this Wozniak of malice, however.

I didn't look at the TLD I just clicked. I thought Woz was ditching OS X, I got excited. I was baited.


If it means anything, amidst all of the downvotes I completely agree with you.
