In fact, I'd argue the phone aspect argues against what you're trying to say here. That you don't actually need to be able to see and respond to email immediately so having a phone is a moot point there.

The main gist is that FB is trying to use their customers to bring force to bear on Apple so they can make more money. They don't give a shit about the customers.

And the customers aren't paying more money. Some of us can disagree with Apple's approach to their walled garden without thinking that means FB should be empathized with here.

They're both shitty company's in their own way, but at least Apple isn't putting its customers in the middle of their fight.

THAT was the main gist of my comment, and what no one wanted to actually address.
