Another great one, Aunt Bex! People can claim every excuse in the book, but at the end of the day cheating is about violating the boundaries of a relationship, about breaking trust and respect with your partner.

14 years ago @ Toy With Me - Where Does Apple Get Off? · 1 reply · +1 points

Good post. For the most part I have no problem with the way Apple handles their iStore, etc. I knew the restrictions when I bought an iPod Touch, and I'm ok with them. All the app developers that cry foul seem to forget that Apple has provided them with a way for a guy in his basement to make money programming games, which is a pretty sweet opportunity. They don't have any sort of right to sell through Apple - it's totally Apple's choice whose stuff they sell and whose they don't. As with anything, once we get accustomed to a privilege or opportunity we begin to feel entitled to it. It may not be nice for Apple to deny the small guy's stuff while selling almost identical content from SI or Playboy, but as my mother always told me, "Life ain't fair."
The only thing that gets my blood boiling is when companies claim that you legally cannot hack their device so you can use other software on it (most notably the PS3). If I've purchased your item, I can dress it up like a doll, throw it off a bridge, rip out its electronic guts to decorate my room, or do whatever else I damn well please with it. The law is lagging behind technology, and it's going to be interesting to see how things progress.
