Recently I saw an article saying, Japanese law forced Apple to open up browser restrictions on iOS.

But this got me thinking, why couldn’t Apple just tell them to fuck off by saying that iOS is meant to be that way cause we are the ones who designed it and the ones who own it. And if you want a change, go make your own products.

Don’t get me wrong, I hate big-tech controlling peoples lives, but aren’t these kind of laws; telling a maker to make the product in a specific way, eliminating creative freedom?

    Why wouldn’t they just call the bluff? Japan needs US tech more, than the other way around.
