You can try to do all that, sure - but Apple don’t have to enable you to do it, and they damn sure well don’t have to write software specifically so you can do it.
It’s your hardware, but you bought it with any restrictions they put on it and you’re under no entitlement for them to remove them.
You are just describing current landscape of corporate greed. So it’s my expensive device, running their telemetry and being a subject of their forced updates putting more and more restrictions and subscriptions on it’s use while they sell data on the side? All that and I can’t play a shitty but popular game on it? Sounds fun. (sarcasm again…) And no, I will not subscribe to the corporate shill mentality so stop trying.
It’s not “corporate greed”. If companies have to make every device of theirs “open source” essentially, and have to make ways for their competitors to be able to run their stuff on the device, and allow people to remove all their companies stuff from their devices, guess what? No one will make devices anymore.
If you don’t like what Apple do, don’t buy Apple devices. You’re not entitled to anything other than the device doing what it says on the box. You do not own the software on it, nor are you entitled to have them give you the keys to their kingdom.
It’s not “corporate shilling” to explain basic concepts around business and how the world works. I didn’t like what Google were doing a few years back so I made the decision to switch to an iPhone and stopped using pretty much all Google services. I voted with my wallet, like you can and should.
