I got to be honest. I own an iphone and for the most part I agree with the whole idea of "you knew what you were buying" and "it's your fault your phone is bricked if you hacked it". However it wasn't until this post that it even clicked with me that they were locking people into contracts and charging ETFs for unsubsidized phones. That is NOT fair. The phone companies' argument all along for ETFs was to recoupe losses on subsidized phones. I thought that was fair also. But what's their excuse now?
