No, apple is a piece of shit for not allowing you to flash whatever firmware you want on there. It makes my job harder and no one wants to do ios pentesting because of that.
I hope that apple burns to hell.
Comment on Apple executives ban Fortnight from the App store
theherk@lemmy.world 18 hours agoPeople buying Apple products want to be told by Apple what’s allowed.
I get that this crowd generally thinks Apple is hellspawn, in spite of also having devices made by other, also shitty corporations, but this is just a dumb thing to say. They’re just devices. Yes some of us prefer them. I didn’t switch after every mainline Android phone from G1 through Nexus and Pixel because I wanted a paternal imposition of allowed apps. Stupid fucking comment.

I don’t disagree with any of that. I only take issue with the quoted statement.

I was merely stating in simple words what Apple’s product is and that their customers respond to exactly that. You choice of words shows that a loud fraction of their user base is a cult, though.

What are you on about? What you said simply is not true. At least, I’ve not once heard an Apple user state they wanted to be told what they were allowed to use. You either believe that, which would be stupid, or you don’t which would be disingenuous. You pick.
It may be a scumbag company, or its users a cult, but that doesn’t stop what you said from being stupid.

I’ve yet to hear anyone in republican cities say they want a king, yet they keep on voting for it.
