Missing in this thread, courts are not known for their technological literacy. So companies just lie to them. Like, all the time. This isn't meant to withstand consumer scrutiny.

Yeah but you have to get caught lying. And the courts aren't very literate with tech and economic stuff. You'd basically need to create a memo that says, "lol we lied!"

someone should try to inform relevant courts about technical things, no idea how but those corporations shouldnt be allowed to get away with crime

You'd be interested in groups like the EFF and Amicus briefs.

Are you suggesting that there are some lies involved in this? If so, you shouid be specific about which lies you’re referring to. Without the specifics this just seems like FUD.

The idea that locking phones is good for customers is a great example.
