    I can’t even imagine that. Modifying your device DOES NOT void your warranty. The burden of proof is on the manufacturer to prove that the modification caused the failure.

      I get that, and I don’t want to use cars as a good example because they aren’t, but even car manufacturers have less restrictive policies than Apple is pushing here.

      It would still be wrong to invalidate the warranty for the reasons you give, but it’s still better than this.

      In EU, there’s a separate warranty on software and hardware.
