calling the calculator broken is a little disingenuous. As long as you don't need to add single digit numbers in a millisecond you're fine.

that's why everyone has been trained to call their issuer whenever they lose their card, and why issuers call you when your card is used somewhere you'd never go, like the hard rock casino in hollywood fl

Seems real strange for drm to screw up your camera and not actually do anything else. And also be really trivial to circumvent if you know it's there.

More likely a combination of needing a place to store camera calibration data, plus being kinda lazy and having no reason to give a gently caress about the user experience of people who unlock their bootloader.

it’s probably a spy/malware partition phoning home and in case of a factory reset attempts to reinstall the spyware

also not giving a gently caress about people who unlocks boot loaders is never not a good call

i have to think that some kind of ikea of phones will turn up sooner or later, this stuff can't stay expensive and/or insecure/terrible forever.

apple wont do it, they have the piece of the market they want (since it coincides with where there are good margins) sewn up

i disagree

tech will stay insecure and terrible probably forever
