apple is get in the way of apple!

the problem with apple is that its too controlling. it proves a concept works but thinks it has the right to control it, and expect others to just sit idle. apple would have been sitting on profits ten times more if it wasn't too controlling to license its ios platform.

apple is scare of android especially if android/google can get its game right. apple idevice maybe the best selling products now but that won't be for long.idevices show that u a member of a club,android devices expresses ur individuality. which will people want in the long run?

IF YOU USE A PIECE OF SOFTWARE(PAID FOR OR FREE), YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO VIEW AND MODIFY ITS SOURCE CODE TO SUIT YOUR NEEDS. it is your right.

because something "just works" doesn't mean you should give up this right. as software users, we should demand these rights

these companies have brainwashed us into thinking its not our right to view and modify the source of software we pay for or use.
