Nothing prevents that the device is locked by you instead of the "store" or even that the device has a "safe" mode that has to be explicitly disabled by the user in a non obvious way like connecting the device to a computer and running a command or so.
The only important thing is for the bank, Netflix and co to not be able to discriminate. But again nothing would provide the bank to offer a setting for the user to restrict where it can use it's banking app if it was not discriminatory. But we know well where this goes, in the end if you don't enable it
I think the bank should be able to discriminate, they should be allowed to say they only work on locked devices, surely.
It’s a security measure, particularly as we place more responsibility on banks to prevent their customers being defrauded.
You must allow your government issued brain chip in order to have money. But don't worry citizen - you have the choice. You can always choose to never have money.
How will we use the brain chip? Citizen, for your security, you must not ever see the brain chip software. You must trust it is perfectly secure and will not be used for nefarious reasons.
All citizens who deny the brain chip, please board the train to your designated shanty town.
This is just facile and childish.
