>Don't like iPhone/iOS? Don't buy it, go and buy Android. Simple as that.

That's a completely disingenuous response to any criticism. I'm allowed to dislike and like features of both iOS and Android. Anything I don't like shouldn't just be disregarded with 'Just get an Android'. iOS isn't perfect, and wanting it to improve is not wrong.

It’s fine to not like things but that doesn’t mean we need to use government force to make people do what we want.

That's exactly what governments and politicians are for isn't it? Making laws (governing) based on what people want.
