I wish it was that simple.
Lets go for an extreme example, I'm sure it will be taken out of context but I might as well try getting the point across.
Lets pretend Apple managed to make an exclusive agreement with another large organization, like say the government. This exclusive agreement means that all voting goes through Apple's proprietary software on their fancy new iPad.
Now of course, it is your choice to disagree with how things are done and not buy the iPad...
Yes, it is an extreme example. But you don't seem to be understanding the GP's point here:
accept whatever the corporate overlords give them, or go to a corner and shutup.
It is in their best interest to trap and control you. Stop telling people to just take it!
