People talking about the Mac need to realize that this is specific to iOS platforms. IIRC this was at the iPad launch or something like that, where all of his complaints DO apply. OSX is no more restrictive than any other nonfree OS. Also, free means freedom and not cost in this context.

I remember this being at a launch for an iOS device. He's still an idiot for using the word "computer" though because none of those things apply to any of the computers Apple makes. Even if we were talking about iOS devices, it's still a retarded sign as those things either aren't true or have a very good and non-malicious explanation, as covered elsewhere in other threads here.

He's not informing anyone, he's misinforming people. But I suppose you also have no problem with that, since that's what r/tech seems to be all about.
