No, according to my logic, ecosystems should be forced to open up where it is beneficial to the public. This pretty obviously excludes access to ring 0.
Also, it needs to be balanced with the interests of the companies owning the ecosystem.
- AmericanChopper 7y agoYou can only ever judge where that is true according to whatever opinions you personally have.
- wsy 7y agoI agree that you cannot easily assess if such a legislation is beneficial for the public or not. That is the case for many government decisions. It still is not a matter of personal opinions/taste, it is a matter of arguments. So it would be your turn now to argue why this specific law is harmful for the public. (We agree that it is harmful for Apple.)
- cynix 7y ago> This pretty obviously excludes access to ring 0. How is it obvious? One could easily argue that because some hardware manufacturers make shitty drivers, opening up access will allow 3rd party developers to create better drivers, or something like that.
- saagarjha 7y agoI’m not sure how this is beneficial to the public. Honestly, I’d argue that ring 0 access is probably more beneficial than this; see the jailbreaking exemptions we already have in place.
