The people that are usually fighting are the ones from which freedom has been forcibly taken. There was no option.

You expect me to have sympathy for people that are whinging about their iPhone not being as open as their Raspberry Pi? Where's your rage about refrigerators or washing machines? Why isn't your car's firmware open-source?

You want freedom, you can get freedom. You want a polished, appliance-like phone, you can choose that.
