They monopolize Apple products I guess.

I gotta be honest, I don’t want my mom to be able to install anything from anywhere on her devices. I prefer that she’s locked into Apple’s ecosystem. I do think you should be able to do whatever you want with your hardware (if you’re willing to risk it).

Informed choice is difficult in this space.

Then there’s the other things I can imagine. Like the scummy sales people or repair shop installing shit on people’s phones and offering free stuff if they install things. Or all the tiktok ads that will push people to install things that will harvest even more data.

I’m surprised that you don’t need to buy bullets.
