if in the 90s you've told me that pocket computers would have the os locked by company G and a rag-tag team of 14yr olds would work on forums to extract binary blobs and manually patch syscalls addresses so the old drivers work on newer phones, just so you can install the later version of a still closed OS... and that the practice would eventually move to the computers of the competing company...
i would have laughed but not in a funny haha way, like you do on most good twilight zone episodes.
