> how about not supporting companies that make ridiculously overpriced products with hugely deficient functional designs?
You made a very good point.
This whole post reminds me the whole iPhone Jailbreak thing: people devoting an huge amount of time and effort to "fix" something Apple doesn't want to be fixed.
And they're even proud of it! I find it to be utterly pathetic.
Over and over again Apple forces their manipulative decisions over their costumers and the majority just follows along.
And the funniest thing is the standard reaction on HN, a place for Apple fanboys. When Microsoft does the same this place erupts with anger, e.g: all the complaints about adds and telemetry on Windows. If Apple does it they invent excuses and over-complicated workarounds for it.
