I don't understand why society accepted that the hardware maker gets to decide what software you run.
That'd be like your car deciding which roads you can take, or your blender deciding you're not allowed to use strawberries in your smoothie.
Are you nuts? Why the fuck would your phone decide which apps you can run?
It's a feature for the next release, don't worry.
