You are just describing current landscape of corporate greed. So it’s my expensive device, running their telemetry and being a subject of their forced updates putting more and more restrictions and subscriptions on it’s use while they sell data on the side? All that and I can’t play a shitty but popular game on it? Sounds fun. (sarcasm again…) And no, I will not subscribe to the corporate shill mentality so stop trying.
- Comment on Apple executives ban Fortnight from the App store 2 weeks ago:
You missed some sarcasm in there. Once I buy a device, I can wipe it clean, remove any bloat application, load my own code, or side load my friends’ shitty home made game. It’s my device, not apples’. Especially when the device is like 2k€. Apple is responsible for their firmware, so device must run and work for me when I factory reset it. Factory code must be consumer friendly (In reality it’s a tracker and an ad peddler). Loosing guarantee is ok if I phisically modify the device.

- Comment on Apple executives ban Fortnight from the App store 2 weeks ago:
No. They can peddle their infinite growth with less people paying more rather than the opposite. This is the way I guess.
- Comment on Apple executives ban Fortnight from the App store 2 weeks ago:
I can see benefits of such limitations for say a company-owned devices with cyber-security in mind. When we talk about open market of devices in an increasingly “digital” world I am against limitations with profit in mind. It’s like many things in life. When you want to do or use something you have to learn to use it, often by getting burned or otherwise making a mistake. You having to fix family devices has nothing to do with it. Anyway I have no stake in this, I would never buy an Apple device. Companies pushing for “infinite growth” with such policies will be left in the dust imo, but the billionares will just move on after milking everything dry.
