   And yet you've never found even _one_ app functionality on iOS that wasn't   
   already on Android, even as there is _plenty_ of Android app functionality   
   not on iOS (such as foss automatic call recording, foss graphical wifi   
   debugging, the real tor browser bundle security, foss system wide firewalls,   
   choice of foss app launchers, etc.).   
      
   The reason Apple devices are crippled is only one reason.   
   Apple cripples them.   
      
   It's not the hardware (although Apple removes most of the basic hardware).   
   It's not even the operating system per se (although it has holes galore).   
      
   The reason Apple iOS devices are crippled compared to Android is simple.   
   Apple limits the functionality of iOS devices while Google can't.
