People who don’t like it can vote with their wallet and buy something else.
I’m 100% happy with not running unsigned code on the most important device in my life that handles all banking and authentication.
Or Apple can release an entirely different OS build that sideloaders can use that also prohibits them from using any Apple apps or devices, what with being insecure and all.
People who think they’re sticking it to Apple are the fools.
This goes beyond what “voting with your wallet” can accomplish. What Apple is doing is making everyone’s phones hostage of their central control and software. Android does this as well to a lesser and more manageable extent but it’s still wrong. Think about it, any of those devices running 100% offline / no access to their servers how long will they keep working , be able to open/install apps etc? This is a threat to democracies and the majority of people aren’t aware / don’t care about the long terms effects of their choices.
How different would be our world if IBM, Microsoft and Apple pulled this kind of frap on computers back then? Probably not as good as it is today, no Linux ever made (because the signed bootloader wouldn’t allow it) and with it half of the software innovation accomplished.
This is why governments should act and push those companies into behaving.
