If I paid a thousand bucks for a flagship phone, I should be able to install whatever the fuck I want. Full stop.
If I paid twenty bucks for a secondhand basic bitch ass phone I should be able to install whatever the fuck I want. Double full stop.
What's your argument? I can't do whatever I want with my device? Fuck off.
