Breaking something expensive when you don't get your way is the act of a petulant child.

Detailed discussion of Apple policy is welcome, giving attention to the noise of 'fuck Apple' and shattered iPhones is not.

The App Store is a store. Breaking things because your sense of entitlement doesn't allow a retailer to pick what they sell is not something I, and (I believe) the majority of HN viewers want to see.

I think you're missing the point, that they didn't break it for free, like a child smashing their gameboy for example. The broke it explicitly for a trade & too protest. This has little to do with entitlement.
