"Some people are bad drivers so all humans must be banned from driving"

What is the psychological cause of such subservience to a corporate entity?



Nobody should be banned from anything. I'm literally member of a libertarian party (not the crazy american one).

What I'm arguing for is people who voluntarily buy devices which are locked down for themselves and their loved ones because we'd rather put sensible restrictions in place for ourselves.


It’s not voluntary when it’s your only choice, or when you get it second hand from someone else. You should always have the option to unlock your own device
