Create a problem, and then heroically fight to make a solution.
This shouldn't exist in the first place. There would be no need for it if Apple didn't insist on "we own all the iPhones, our users just get to tap at them".
If you could just unlock the bootloader, re-enable SWD and do what you want with an iPhone that you actually own, there would be no need for this restrictive program at all.
This is also why my current Macbook will be my last, I'm going back to Linux. No matter how superior M-series chips are the amazing hardware can't make up for the unbearable nanny software. So tired of Apple machines telling me what I should do. It's supposed to be the other way around.

It then wouldn’t be the most secure consumer phone then, would it?
How do we know it is, besides apple marketing?
Given how many high profile politicians, journalists and businessmen have gotten their phones hacked, the iPhone is not unhackable.
Why not? In the default locked state it's just as secure as before, and unlocking it would require both physical access and your Apple ID.
It would be. You would have more eyeballs if you had an open bootloader instead of this program they're offering.

Does this include... Israel being able to pwn any Apple device ?
Cool. Where can I buy one.
Just gotta sign away your soul.
well that's cheaper than expected!
the periodic terms and conditions updates are hell though.
