It's a detriment to me. I don't need that level of security, so why should I pay extra for all my repairs which is effectively me subsidizing enterprise corporations and governments? Plus it's increasing the original development and manufacturing costs, so I'm paying a lot extra for something that doesn't benefit me at all.

If those companies and governments really need those security features, let them pay for them. I don't care if their phones cost $5k.
