Doesn’t seem like they ever will be. They have an answer to everything lawmakers come up with. Consumers are the only group that could punish Apple in a meaningful way, and at this point, that’s definitely not in the cards either.

Stop this fatalist expectation that we’d have to shop our way out it. This is what regulation is for. It works. All we have to do is do it.
