Its so ironic to see 'freedom people' defend a system that would make Stalin green with envy.
"saw the deal on offer and decided they were better off taking it that walking"
The same reasoning applies to loan sharks, drug dealers and mafia. 'Unlimited' free market always degrades into oligopoly or Mafia rule.
"you want a small group of "our betters" to decide what exactly a mobile device should be"
You want that, and you have that- a small group of powerfull men decide to do with your device. Tomorrow your device uodates and startps reporting you to police for speeding, and there is fuck all you can do.
I am not asking for a communist mobile pgone comitee, I am asking for the word ownership to mean something. It's not a difficult concept.
