Since when is forcing a company to give you more options considered an “iron curtain”?

Features are not arriving here and likely won't in their original form because Apple needs to adapt to local regulations... which I don't care.

Just the other day some stupid rule came out forcing developers even the smaller ones to publish their address which prompted non EU developers to just unregister their apps on the region.

Yes. It's an iron curtain and another stupid outcome of misguided EU regulations that might have good intentions but end ruining everything like GDPR cookie modals.

It's wild to watch hackers say shit that could have come straight outta the Apple marketing/legal department verbatim.

I can hack my desktop machine all I want. I prefer my phone walled. If I ever wanted to hack my phone I would buy some pixel device.

How will you be forced to hack your phone?

So your position is that if you personally don't want to be able to do something, then it's fine for the manufacturer to prohibit others from doing that thing if they want to?
