It's not a bicycle for your mind, it's a railbike draisine that only goes on the rails that Apple allows you to use.

> So, why does Europe need/want the US in NATO?

There's is no NATO without the US, it would need to be something else and function differently. That takes years because there's too many countries involved. We would likely get two military unions in EU - North and South, North on helping Ukraine and South trying to distance itself. Furthermore the time is running out until this grows into a bigger conflict, this is just from couple of days ago: "Alarm in Denmark after Russian ship fires at military helicopter"

It's not about right to violence, it's about all kinds of rights in a pyramid form. Feudalism is about fiefdom, in that context even LG TV spyware is a form of digital feudalism.

> a trail of liability you can use to sue LG.

The average user would not realize LG was the reason, if they do they will loose more money and effort; LG's reputation and public image won't be even damaged enough for them to take a notice. You are an ant for them and ants are only powerful if they work together.

Allowed or not, if you bought your phone before the regulations were in place you'd still have no connection on some models, even 4G phones

Many so called dumb phones are just Android phones with buttons, real dumb low powered devices are being phased out because you don't get support for VoLTE Emergency
