They are presented with that. Just in real life. When they choose to buy the iPhone or something else.

If users aren't aware that for-profit companies make money and one of the ways they do that is by adding margins to the prices of items sold, I don't think Apple, Microsoft or Google are your real problems.

Russia asked to block Putin's rivals apps. Google and Apple complied. The only people who could side-load it were Android users. I guess that's good for Democracy, right? because Apple said so…

It totally wouldn't happen to us…
