It’s like that quote, “you can fool some people some of the time, but you can’t fool all people all of the time”- thing is, they don’t have to. They fool most of the people most of the time, and that is all they need to impose their agenda. The fringe cases, like people rooting and installing alternative OS’s, don’t matter if 99% of the world’s population go along with whatever the corps dictate. The sheer inertia of that will keep pulling the tech where they want it to go, as global industry pulls the same way.
