It is your phone after you pay for it. But if you want it to work, using Apple's software, you have to abide by their license terms. They weren't secretive about them.

I didn't call them dishonest, and nor did the original post. Both of us note that they're being foolish, and not adhering to common standards.

No, the original post called them criminal. Which is an asinine argument.
