Apple isn't happy about India's demand to upgrade older iPhones with USB-C::Apple has urged the Indian IT ministry to make changes to its single charger rules, as adding USB-C to older iPhone models will make it hard for Apple to meet production targets for India's manufacturing and export laws.

My mind goes to net neutrality laws debacle for instance. Yes regulation is important to keep companies in check but they can be abused when applied against the consumer.

    Which they 100% will be. I was ALL for Net Neutrality, the first time that was huge news, but then started reading up on all the downsides and it'd end like all gov't regulation does, de-facto government created lock in.

    So you read some propaganda and don’t actually know what net neutrality is. Cool story?
