Oh right, THIS is why it's not a good idea to use a system where a single corporation (and one predisposed to control-freakery at that) gives itself veto power over what your device can and cannot do.

(not that "everybody go buy a Nexus 5" is the answer either. The only way to keep these corporations in check is a competitive platform marketplace with considerably more than two players. Go buy a Lumia, a Jolla, a Firefox phone, a Tizen phone...support diversity, kids)
