    Funny someone with your username would advocate for people who outright bought a piece of hardware to be controlled by the manufacturer in terms of what they can do with their device, while also forcefully taking an enormous cut of any transactions involving it.

    Epic has forced Apple to give users more options, and that’s a good thing. Epic are usually the bad guys - this time they weren’t.

      Epic intentionally broke the rules of the contract they agreed to, and had a lawsuit ready to go as soon as Apple rightfully removed their game from the store over the breach of contract. Epic were not the good guys.

      You guys need to get this idea out of your head that the makers of the device that you bought need to provide ways for you to do what you want with it. They don’t, and any attempt to force them to write software to do so should be denied.

      You can do whatever the hell you like with your hardware. Take it apart, take it fishing, try and hack it, have sex with it - whatever you want! But the device makers aren’t responsible for giving you ways to hack it.
