I'm having a hard time understanding where the miscommunication is. What I'm saying is: not allowing a user to access their pictures without accepting a change in the terms of service is bad. A renegotiation of terms of a contract when one party has all the power (Apple, who has the pictures the user took and the user cares about) is inherently unfair and it should be just as easy for the user to say 'I don't agree, give me back my pictures and I'll stop using your service' as it is to say 'I agree and will keep using your service'.

It is why I'm not buying the Steam Controller, you need a user account, software running in the background and you need to accept the terms and services of Valve before you are able to use it. That is just unacceptable to me. Other controllers don't have all that.
Yeah, if SC Controller adds support for the Steam Controller 2, I'll be more inclined to get it.

EDIT: Though I read that the SC2 works like a regular controller if you just plug it in without Steam, so at least that's positive.
