This assumes that 100% of iPhone and iPad customers understand the totality of the consequences of buying Apple's hardware.
Most people do not understand the intricacies of the iOS and App Store app distribution model, and most people do not buy Apple hardware because of it.
All users, including those users, deserve the freedom to own the hardware they buy and run what they want on it.

No, and I never suggested they did. > It may come as surprise but to lot of people/institutions getting something done is far more valuable than totally owning something. Doing what you want with the stuff you bought is not orthogonal to "getting something done".
- josephd79 4y agoI agree all users should be able to own the hardware and do what you want to it but most people do not care. They’ve been conditioned.
