Sadly, not arguing that jailbreaking should be a federal crime is a step up from Apple.

  Sideloading ≠ jailbreaking. Microsoft isn't taking a position on jailbreaking by any definition that existed prior to this morning. They're merely tolerating sideloaded apps, which removes one incentive for jailbreaking.

        The fact that they were proved wrong only makes their stance worse.

          They were not "proved wrong". Prior to that decision there was no exemption for jailbreaking.
