Apple has patented technology to disable selected functions of iPhone at will

Apple,

 

Where do i start. Why does it seem that you are up to no good. I’m puzzled by this move, and curious about good applications for this patent. It sounds more like something that makes me cringe. A way for apple to stop Rooting the phone by detecting its been done and stopping it from making calls.

 

one comment that especially creepy was the following “Ultimately, this technology could be used to turn off both the camera and the internet access by government censors.”
