You’re advocating for personal freedom for you and coercion for another. Just drop the coercion and use an Android.

Who would be coerced if I could run whatever software I wanted? Oh, the precious apple corporation? They are coerced all the time by legal restrictions. I'm just asking them to stop blocking it.

I'm hoping anti-trust law will come to bear on software from apple.

The men who work at Apple would be coerced. Of course we are all coerced by the law in matters of morality, I.e. the 10 commandments. But you’re wanting to put “my sideloading” at the level of theft or other such crimes. That’s unreasonable and entitled thinking.
