True. But society in practice requires a smartphone with one of two operating systems to live a normal life without significant efficiency losses in your day. Now all phones with both of those will be completely walled off. You'll be forced to participate or make your life a lot less convenient.

Surely you wouldn't defend absolutely anything happening to say roads just because you're not forced to drive, technically speaking?
