It is the right thing in your mind because you want it. If the consumer agreed with you they could vote with the pockets not to buy Apple, but they don’t. The install base of Android users that root their device is also low. People do not want it. You and a small group of people want it. The market makes the rules here. Also once again it is not a small effort to do what you want. Do you know what the current dev-test env looks like at Apple? Do you know what the code path is to turn on and off security? What do you do here? Implement a feature to allow the user to install unsigned software? Okay so you turn off the protections, does that disable the wall between apps? Is that okay? Is it okay to say well if you disable this the way the system is written all protections come down, so anything you install can read your keychain and all your passwords? How long will the EULA be when you want to press that button? What happens when someone does this scream to the media and the courts? Who is going to pay to write the code for this and the lawyers and the test team? You want to force a company to write code because it is something you want yet you are unwilling to admit that it is not free. Where does it stop, I mean I really want an iPhone that matches my car color. I guess I should get a law passed to force phone makers to support custom colors? I can get a phone that is not Apple to match my car color as everyone else has seem to do it, so why not force Apple? It’s easy right? The truth is that it is not simple, it never is. It is never just a matter of a little software. The fact is there is no legal or moral reason for the government to be involved in this market based decision. The market here is not a monopoly, there are other players and the consumer has a choice. Just because you have an issue with it does not make it meet the legal requirement for the government to become involved. Your outrage on this issue is a false premise that fails the test of harm to the consumer. You are welcome to use another companies product that supports the feature that you want.
