Sure, Apple has a point about protecting the users. But it’s their choice to make and I’m sure they will make it a really unattractive option with many warnings. Considering some of my friends who work in IT are now afraid to do things as simple as making changes in the registry now, I don’t think an unknowing user will be tricked into this.
And really let’s be honest Apple’s strong objections have absolutely nothing to do with user protection and absolutely everything with that 30% take they’re making.
And the thing is, for all Android’s lack of privacy, I can open the box of an Android phone and install whatever I want without having to even create an account with Google or Samsung or whoever. You can use an iPhone without an Apple ID but you can do absolutely nothing apart from the built-in apps.
I agree, my point was that this should have happened years ago. Android had this option from the start, and evolved with it in mind; iOS will probably have a rougher time dealing with this.
This is like someone drinking for the first time only long after reaching adulthood. Dumb mistakes will be made. Oh, well…
