    You don’t own your device.

      Wrong

      “Ownership“ doesn’t mean “I can do whatever I want with it”.

        edit: wow, Redditors are better at accepting the truth, lol

        So go pander to them.

        If I own something, I can do whatever I like with it because it’s mine.

        If I can’t do what I like, it’s not truly mine.

    Was there any reason to make this an ios app as opposed to a website hosted outside the US? I’m really not surprised by the removal. What did they expect? All the Tech CEOs came to the inauguration with bags of cash.

    With this and Google stopping side loading in Android, I’m going to be looking hard into Linux phones.

      They’re not stopping it, they are planning to introduce it to the platform; no one side loads on Android today, because it’s not a walled garden yet.

    Stop. Fucking. Using. Apple. Products.

    Why would you pay 1k+ for a phone you don’t even own/control?

      You’ve heard about Android, right? We all have like six months to find a new platform.

    ICEBlock was really poorly designed from what I understand.
