  Well you don’t have to, but it’s always good to have options

      More freedom would be to choose the phone you want and sideload whatever you want to it.

      That’s the whole point, to force iPhone to also have freedom.

      Android is becoming less free every year; the more Apple gets away with, the closer Android/Google will drift towards it.

  then don’t.

  it’s not something your being forced to do. it’s the lifting of an unnecessary restriction that in turn gives you more power on your device.

      If they don’t then they might lose the Brazilian market and who knows what comes after. It’s less about what Apple wants to do and more about what they might be forced to do.

      Windows and Mac OS are both closed source but both allow apps outside an app store. No issue with the code base there.

  I want to sideload things in my iPhone. Hopefully we’ll both be able to do what we want.
