- returningfory2 2y agoMy comment is not about the specifics of this case...
- akmarinov 2y agoYes, you’re purposefully changing the subject, to avoid actually discussing the issue, since it’s not in your interest as a now American
- returningfory2 2y agoHN topics are not linear conversations. There is no notion of "changing the subject". We can simultaneously discuss the article and topics around the article on separate comment trees.
- akmarinov 2y agoGreat! So then why am I not allowed to run whatever i want on my $999 phone?

- magarnicle 2y agoBecause Apple doesn't want their OS turning into Windows from the 2000s. Bad for you, good for all the non-tech people out there, or so the thinking goes.
- dnissley 2y agoYou knowingly bought the phone that had that limitation, so presumably you had some other priorities
- cbeach 2y agoIf you want to do that you're free to buy a phone (i.e. Android) that is has fewer safeguards and lacks vertical integration. For those of us who value Apple's approach, please let us choose the phone that works best for us, and stop supporting bad politicians who want to regulate our choices away.
- akmarinov 2y agoLol, you don’t have choices currently
