Curiously, while in character, it's about the stupidest thing companies can do, at least according to Mike Brock

I'd like to think this all might be a time to teach common end-users the joys of FOSS and, if necessary, jailbreaking, but that's still a big ask for the general public even in the face of abduction and rendition.
