So technically they could restrict every device then even if you bought it.
Interesting they are saying this outloud…its almost like they are trying a strategy of determinism.
They can go F themselves, they need to be reminded of what happens to when authority tries conformity <iframe src="https://archive.org/embed/1983-30sec” width="560” height="384” frameborder="0” webkitallowfullscreen="true” mozallowfullscreen="true” allowfullscreen></iframe>

What happens is that consumers roll over and take it. Especially considering if apple is doing it, it’s only a matter of time before Android does as well and that eliminates all viable choices for non-techie people
