Sure, we'll all just go ahead and build the third walled garden with all the billions we have lying around. This "just don't buy Apple then" argument is disingenuous and I'm tired of hearing it.
Apple et al. want the benefits of being utilities without the regulations that go with it. If my _bank_ requires me to use one of two OSs, the corporations that control them can not claim all the freedoms private companies do.
