I love that the company famous for their 1984 ad tells you they know what software’s best for you to run on a device you own. Very big brother. I really hope iOS 18 third party stores aren’t geo locked to the EU; I wouldn’t put it past them.

I hope that leads to bootleg iPhones for 1/10th of the price. Could finally convince me to buy one over an Android.
