It's nice that an American company will enforce a 24-hour cooling-off period for the installation of a few 1s and 0s on a device I already own.
They wouldn't do this for the purchase of a firearm.
This biting satirical take is brought to you by a disillusioned Android user seriously thinking about switching to an iPhone. If a walled garden is inevitable I might as well go where most stuff gets developed for first.
A little more than 1/4 of states (14) have a mandatory waiting period for buying guns ranging from 3 days to 30 days.
The comment about the firearm comparison really got me. That is so fucking true.
I have to admit I'm in the same boat, ive been on android for 15 years, but if they take away Graphene Im just switching to iPhone, at least then I won't get complaints from friends and family about lack of Imessage.
For myself I wouldn't be going to Iphone, but I am going to make sure any phone I buy will have the option of installing LineageOS or another rom from now on.
It seems that's less true than we had thought.
That depends on the state. Some do require waiting periods for buying guns.
Do they require waiting times after you attached a flashlight or switched to a bigger magazine, though?
Because that is what Google is doing here - enacting limitations / hurdles for phones that were already sold.
