This article by Jonathan Zittrain is why it’s wise not to let law professors write about technology:
If Apple is the gatekeeper to a device’s uses, the governments of the world need knock on the door of only one office in Cupertino, California – Apple’s headquarters – to demand changes to code or content . Users no longer own or control the apps they run – they merely rent them minute by minute.
I know he’s striving for an analogy here, but putting in an analogy which suggests you simply don’t know what you’re talking about isn’t exactly good practice.
