There's even a suggestion now that they've fiddled with the javascript on the UK site so that you have to scroll down to see the notice.

It's certainly true that if you set your browser zoom to 100% and go to the US site you will see the page footer. This was also true earlier of the UK site.

Now if you go to the UK site the footer is not seen until you scroll down.

The Next Web has pointed out this interesting little point:

"Apple today posted its second Samsung apology to its UK website, complying with requests by the UK Court of Appeal to say its original apology was inaccurate and link to a new statement. As users on Hacker News and Reddit point out, however, Apple modified its website recently to ensure the message is never displayed without visitors having to scroll down to the bottom first."

Now that is interesting, isn’t it? It also appears that the code was added to the site only a couple of days ago. It’s not something that has historically been there nor is it present on the US site according to Next Web.
