Just because something is owned by a private company doesn't mean they can do what they want and the law isn't allowed interfere. They cannot close it to Jews or black people, the law is quite clear. I'm suggesting making a law that says they cannot counter/restrict other people informating customers of their rights.

Well, I still disagree with you with respect to that law, because I think you're stretching consumer rights cover disliking a product. The point of Apple's forum isn't for warranty-covered tech support, so going in and bitching about a product is both nonconductive and distracting. If Lessig has a problem with his iPhone, there are channels he can go to for support, as well as other channels where he can voice his opinion. Besides, there are defamation laws in place already, and they're broad enough.
