  If I want Anthropic to have the same level of access that Apple grants itself on _my_ phone, I should be able to do so.

I want to install my personal software on my refrigerator, washing machine, hand shaver, coffee maker. I bought them. They're mine. /s

If people want to buy open hardware, then just buy those. If they don't exist, make them yourself.

Do you rather want your refrigerator, washing machine and coffee maker send all the data it collects about you during your usage to some company you don't even know? How is it ridiculous to want to be able to make your devices do what you want to do, not what the big company behind it wants?

Those machines don’t connect to the internet but I want to run my own software on them.

1. A lot of those more recent machines do actually connect to the internet. 2. Since you want to run your own software on them, but you can't buy open hardware like that, did you build it yourself then as you suggested? "If they don't exist, make them yourself."

1. I want to run my own software even on the ones that don’t connect to the internet. /s

2. No, I don’t have the skills to. But if it’s so important to you, you can surely build it yourself.

If the demand for installing your own software is so great, a company would make it.
