Mostly wondering about legislators being Super Concerned about Apple (and Google to a smaller degree) not allowing 3rd party software.

But for consoles it's just crickets.

We shouldn't need to "defeat the DRM", it should be allowed full stop.

Legislators *use* cell phones though; very few of them use video game consoles.

Millennials are also legislators, people who have grown up with consoles.

Not every politician is a boomer.
