I may be misunderstanding you, but how exactly is having autonomy over your phone any different over autonomy over anything else you own? Or are you consistently against people having any autonomy over their property?
- hot_gril 3y agoI can already legally do whatever I want with my own phone, as I have a right to my property, but it doesn't mean Apple is required to help me do it. And Apple has the right to design the phone and offer service the way they want. There are exceptions where this might not be right, but it's just a phone repair, not someone's life. Why should I care about Apple's rights? Aside from any argument about slippery slope, I'm a happy enough customer. Last time I've felt the need to repair an iPhone was a decade ago, and it was for a cracked screen, which wasn't expensive to repair. It seems to me like people with niche business interests are trying to force them on a market that has already decided against them.
