These are the same insufferable, out of touch people who expect a fresh pair of plastic gloves be put on for every sandwich the guy makes them at the deli, and are simultaneously outraged when their straw isn’t compostable.

And this time the whole world can thank the EU, Apple is definitely not going to create a special iPhone hardware just for us.

Or Apple will throw a hissy fit¹, stop selling them directly here, but get the sales anyway as people will buy them elsewhere and import to sell on the grey market.
