This is the future Apple wants I guess, you don't really own your hardware, you simply have a limited license to use it under their very strict terms. It's just a matter of time before Macs become just like iOS.
I've been trying to sound the alarm over "Secure Boot" and the absolute torture it will be to run other operating systems on these ARM Macbooks but very few people seem to care. I guess as long as the display is shiny and the trackpad is big then we're all good.
