Daft headline. Whilst -technically- true, the implication is that Apple went 
looking for the booing and tried to suppress it. They didn’t, the standard 
content ID thing kicked in and identified the snippet as copyright Apple, so 
they claimed it.

If they were looking to suppress the bad reaction, they would have done so on 
their official video. They haven’t. Basically this article is 2 + 2 = 47

Cheers,
Ian
