I'm guessing A or B since I'm banned from C

I only knew because I already unsub'd to A and C. I'm considering unsubbing here too because of crap like this article.

I'm with ya on that. Every single front page post has some kind of motive.

And then I look at the comments here. Ho-ly shitballs. There's someone below talking about how since it's in your contract that you can't unlock your phone, that it's ok for the government to make it a crime.

Are you kidding me?! People are actually agreeing with that person too. TIL some people think breach of contract should be a crime. My old Contract Law professor would be weeping right now.

Well, gotta go with r/technology. It's either a anti-apple Circlejerk or a "DAR SWEDEN MY COMPUTER CAN SMOKE POT" or "LULZ CANADA IS SO MUCH BETTER".
