But they do prevent me from installing iBoobies (or whatever they just removed from the store) by other means right? Unless I jailbreak the phone (the bottle), which I assume they don't encourage, they're controlling not just the restaurant, but also how i consume the alcohol...
- GHFigs 17y agophone (the bottle) In my analogy, the bottle would have been an application. The App Store (the restaurant) contains applications (the alcohol), not the phone. The phone would be, I suppose, the "world". After all, if you abandon that phone, the rules of that world do not apply. The analogy strains at this point anyway: In my jurisdiction, and most others that I've lived, restaurants by law only sell alcohol in open containers, which you can only consume on site. You can't take it home with you. I know it's not the same everywhere, but it's hard to draw a consistent analogy when the thing being analogized to doesn't behave the same way everywhere. On the other hand, maybe that is apt.
