I&#x27;ve been spending some time trying to understand this today, and I don&#x27;t understand why such users don&#x27;t just go buy a device they can root and take full control that way. Why blame a vendor that doesn&#x27;t ship what you want? Why not just... buy what you <i>do</i> want?<p>Separately: The DMCA needs to be dismantled, absolutely.
