[quote="noldrin"]Kill switches are getting more common in slaveware. With the iphone, not only does Apple get to approve what software is allowed on your phone, they can remotely turn off apps they no longer like. From what I can tell, the iphone is the greatest achievement of slaveware that we've seen yet.[/quote]
