That's great. It doesn't mean that we, who don't like walled gardens and love our computing freedom, are willing to kow-tow to Apple's every whims and fancy and sacrifice our rights. And if you believe that our criticisms and protests don't have any effect then you should be content with that fact and ignore us instead of the pointless exercise of telling us that we are ignorant and need to shut up - it's obvious that we value different things.
It doesn't make either of us right or wrong - it just means we have different expectations, and I am sure you don't have any objections to people thinking different from you, right?
