    If you’re using a modern computer then you’re buying it from one of the handful megacorps around. Apple isn’t really special in this regard.

      It’s more about their practices, the same for Microsoft and Google. I still have my trusty Nokia 8110 4G but I know it’s going to die one day and then I’ll have to choose between Google and Apple :(

        My point is that the problem is systemic, and all corporations end up leaning towards similar practices in the end because that’s what the selection pressures under capitalism drive them to.
