> Second : it's not about gaming only, it's about the right of people to control the device they bought.

I think most people don't really want that right. Myself included. I like the iPhone as it is and don't see any advantages to changing the operating model. Maybe if you're a developer you don't like it, so in that case I just say too bad and just don't develop for the iPhone if it isn't profitable for you.

All this talk about "freedom" and "rights" is quite a bit of misguided grandstanding if you ask me.

"I bought an Xbox, where are my rights as a general computing device!11!" Give me a break.

If you want all this stuff to "change' then go ahead and start with making Blizzard allow me to publish my independent games on their App Store with no review process and no revenue cut. Make Microsoft let me play Nintendo Switch games on my Xbox. Make game developers make all of their games cross-platform, no more Windows-exclusive games.
