Why would it become a public issue for Apple? You're going to have a REAL tough time getting the government to intervene because you can't run linux on a macbook. You have literally thousands of alternatives.

And outside of government intervention, the response from the general public will be: who cares? None of them want to or care to run Linux on a macbook. Heck even within the HN community I'm willing to bet the number of folks who run linux as a daily driver desktop on a macbook is a rounding error.
