Let's put all this "I paid for it, I should do whatever i want with it no matter what the consequences" crap to bed right now with a simple analogy shall we?

You bought the house (iPhone). And you pay property and school tax (Service plan). Now let's say you want to put a hot pink colored extension onto the front of your house, and put a 40ft tall iron gate in the front yard and dig a moat around your house and while renovating your house you decide that you don't like this one support beam so you're going to move it, leaving part of your floor unsupported.

Good luck getting the necessary permits for your "renovations" (3rd party apps).

Oh sure, you can go and do it anyway behind the backs of the community (jailbreak)... and then get fined if caught (void your iPhone warranty)

People you simply cannot give everyone everything they want, just because your name is on the lease.

Stop whining, stop bitching, don't buy an iPhone if you don't want to play by their rules because nobody wants a neighbor with a neon pink balcony and a moat around their crumbling house encased in 40ft of iron.

Rules are fine, as long as they're all spelled out in the beginning. Changing your secret rules at whim and without notice is douchebaggery.

Neither will make it to the app store, however.
