Perfect. Go take your enthusiasm to John Deere, and the Xbox division.

No, I think we'll start with Apple and work our way down. Scale is everything when you're concerned about remediating market damages.

John Deere is already subject to extra regulation in Europe; it's only in America that they're allowed to molest consumers in the aftermarket. And Xbox has had sideloading for decades now, in case you were unaware: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/...

		> John Deere is already subject to extra regulation in Europe; it's only in America that they're allowed to molest consumers Which clearly shows the problem is not John Deer, Apple, etc. The problem is weak consumer protections in the US from corrupt US lawmakers who were bought by the companies they are supposed to regulate.

		I support apple doing what Xbox does. A separate mode - you can side-load, but you lose all access to appstore and all built-in apps. Enjoy :)

		LOL. Developer mode is side loading now. For those who didn’t click the link, Xbox allows you to either load your own software or load software you buy from the Xbox store. Not both.
