iOS 27 code suggests Apple could restrict leased devices after missed payments

Perfectly fair, yet I’m expecting people in here will dislike it.

I think the discrepancy here is if leasing devices at which I is agree fair.

What I take umbridge with is the way ownership is being removed, for something that we know can be produced plentifully. And the push to give everything as a service or lease.

As a sociaty We are allowing tiered privileges.

Ownership isn’t being removed though, because you don’t own it when you’re leasing it. You can still just buy one if you want to, but leasing can be a good option.

I think you will find that systems of ownership and being reduced or removed and systems of leasing or renting are being pushed. So its becoming less of an option…surprising to the benefit of the rich…not the user paying

Faff around with the language and message all you like, but rent/lease/asa a service etc are all being touted against a ’option’ at a time where we are seeing destruction of ownership. This is not good for the average person and I am always surprised by the amount of people who are happy to take this or bootlick on the matter.
