I agree. Just as I am not allowed to drive through town at 100 miles an hour even though my car is easily capable of doing it we do have to accept some minor restrictions for the greater good of protecting copyright. Actually, you are already freely giving up all your information and control to Google, Apple, and others. Just for the sake of a getting a few freebies. (In another thread people argue that they need virtually no local storage, the cloud is fine. When you are putting everything in the cloud you are basically an open book). So why not use that same information to protect other people's rights for the good of society.
