Within the past week I’ve had to listen to 2 people talk about how Apple products were such shit because they couldn’t access their accounts or get into their things for work because they had forgotten their password or fucked up their two factor authentication.
These are the exact kind of people who will download some game just randomly off the Internet because they don’t have to pay for it and then when their phone fucks up, they will blame Apple
Yes, users can act completely idiotic. It still does not mean one company can have a chokehold on a massive industry stifling any competition as they see fit.
Had Apple acted by their own rules in the first place, they probably wouldn’t be under this much scrutiny by several governments.
So?
Does Ford have the right to tell you which roads you can drive on, so you won’t mess up the suspension?
They certainly do tell you which parts you can add to your car that will void the warranty or make it illegal to drive on the street
Notice in your example, they still give you the freedom to do it in the first place.
Apple Car would weld the bonnet shut and you wouldn’t even be able to change the oil yourself.
