Because I don't want to spend twice the price of an iphone for something less useful than a flip phone. Freedom preserving devices will always struggle to reach the level of usability of the first iphone.

I want my phone to be a toaster - I have as much right as you do to make Apple implement what I want - that is to say, no right at all.

If the majority of people think Apple should be required to respect user freedoms then the government will regulate it and they will have to unless they plan to retaliate in some way which is unlikely if the government and supporter group is big enough. The government is a powerful tool for improving the world when applied correctly.
