A few days ago, the forces of nature once again made a presence on American territory, something that unfortunately has become commonplace. Many have been the people who have seen each other affected by Hurricane Harvey which has left a large number of victims and material damage in its wake.
Apple has helped rebuild and victims donating 3 million dollars, one million of which corresponds to Apple users who have made donations through the American Red Cross. But it seems that it is not the only move of the company in this sense, since a large number of 9to5Mac readers claim that it is repairing the devices affected by the disaster or that have suffered some impact during the rescue tasks completely free of charge.
Although Apple is one of the companies that offers the best after-sales treatment in the world, sometimes they grab onto a burning nail so as not to cover the possible damages that may be found in a terminal, as is the example of the damages caused by the water, something that in no case is it covered by the warranty, but that on this occasion, the Cupertino boys have decided to ignore, at least in all the users who reside in the areas affected by the passage of Hurricane Harvey.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott claims that the damage caused by Hurricane Harvey, they could initially be much worse than those caused by Katrina in New Orleans 12 years ago. Occasional damage from Katrina totaled $ 120 billion, but according to early estimates, Harvery may have left up to $ 180 billion worth of damage. Hurricane Harvey has killed at least 47 people and more than 43.000 people have been evacuated. Most of the evacuees were in areas that are currently completely flooded by water.
