Terms of service can be incredibly one sided. And you don't have the option to not agree or negotiate, and still use the hardware you paid for in a reasonable way.
You probably have Android which, while more open, is still ran by Google who could, at will, decide to change the rules tomorrow by forcing an update directly to your (or my) phone. Besides those two, there isn't much. While competition and free market is good, it's not always enough, sometimes regulation is needed.
I meant regulation requiring interoperability to prevent walled gardens. Kinda like net neutrality, but for "platforms", if you will.
