Such a strange position to take indeed. I dont see people clamoring behind Apple when they do proprietary things - iMessage protocol, Bluetooth improvements for Airpods, private APIs in Apple Watch.

Apple's "life saving" Apple watch features are only accessible on premium devices. "Privacy is a human right" is also only possible if you buy their devices. It doesnt go around making it free to everyone, and nobody seem to be saying "if you believe in that, then why dont you make it accessible for people from all socio-economic classes?"
