That is clearly untrue. When Apple wanted to make a phone they made their ecosystem a jail cell.
When Google was in the same position and wanted to make a phone, they started the Open Handset Alliance, and developed free software for manufactures and consumers to use and modify as they see fit.
How exactly is that doing the same thing?
- acchow 14y agoI cannot upvote this enough. I for one will never buy another iPhone. But I am in a jail cell. How can I leave iOS? My friend tried once and it bit him in the ass. He lost his iPhone (which never had iOS 5 and thus never had iMessage). But at some point between losing his phone and disabling his sim card, the person who stole/had his phone upgraded to iOS 5 and turned on iMessage. So his stolen/lost phone was now taking all his iMessages. My friend then bought a non-Apple phone and NONE of his friends (including me) that were using iPhones were able to text him. We received messages from him, but all our replies were being sent as iMessages to his stolen/lost phone. He had to change his phone number in the end. Who designs this shit?
