Jobs was far from perfect. However, his contributions _far_ outweigh all his transgressions. The iPhone has (and will) ushered in an era of unimaginable prosperity for, in the coming years, literally the entire planet.
Whether or not his work could have been achieved without his faults is an open question. One which the counter factual isn't possible.
The key thing to remember is that there are no solutions, only trade offs. Jobs was an unedeniably overwhelmingly positive force on the world.

- WorldWideWayne 11y agoYeah, I'm so happy that Apple popularized the walled-garden approach to selling hardware and software. Now everybody is trying to get in on it and instead of owning my stuff and being able share it and run it wherever I want, I'm locked into Steve Jobs' money pit.
