Maybe not the best analogy since auto makers have to sell spare parts to third part repair shops.
- skohan 5y agoYes it's a very bad argument - there are all sorts of regulations in place to prevent the types of monopoly powers which major software vendors currently enjoy.
- a1369209993 5y agoActually it's a fairly good argument; it's just a argument against their position, not for it.
- buildbot 5y agoWell apple may be forced to sell physical hardware to shops, I agree with many here you can’t force them to provide everything. Mercedes for example has tons of software and software tools just for mostly internal and some dealer use, that allow you to do many more things with the car (like changing configuration flags, updates for the ecu and entertainment systems…).
