(a) that's not the case at all here with Apple. There's not a single iOS owner (or shouldn't be) who thought they had a reasonable expectation of installing apps outside of the iOS app store. (b) even if they DID "change the rules" (which they didn't for consumers), it's likely that the legalese included with the hardware gave them to right to do that > The bait and switch happened, without you being able to agree to the terms. (again, this didn't happen for consumers, but EVEN IF....) I agreed to them having the ability to do so by not returning the device when I opened it to find the T&C that allowed them to change the rules. It might color my desire to give them future purchases, but I'd not see any legal/moral reason to go after them for the behavior.
