> You don't have "ownership" over something you stole. You have possession of it. Possession != ownership. You need to develop your functional literacy skills because you clearly are failing to even understand the topics being discussed, let alone the arguments going either way. | ||

You were literally saying "not one" person (period!) wants the ability to control their own device. Clearly such people exist, even if we aren't the majority. What is wrong about the OPs arguments that suggests a failure of literacy on their part? If you want a device that is locked down by the manufacturer so it only runs software they approve of, in the name of security, that is a tradeoff you should be allowed to make, and the free market is ready to accomodate your desire. Unfortunately, those of us who want the opposite are not so lucky currently. Is it really impossible to see for you why some people have a problem with this situation persisting, and with comments like yours further normalizing it? | ||

Hi, also chiming in as someone who also would like to stop cheering when these kinds of vulnerabilities are found, and I'll do it when manufacturers stop treating me, the person buying their products, like the thief in your example. |
