Apple busted for dubious Applecare selling

Italian law says customers are legally entitled to a free two-year warranty and technical support on electronic goods. However, Apple staff kept quiet about this when selling to customers, instead detailing Apple’s standard one-year warranty and then encouraging them to take out Applecare, an extended warranty. They didn’t inform customers that the first year of Applecare would overlap with the second year of the statutory warranty period.
