    You know jailbreaking isn’t illegal right? It’s the same is removing one of those void if removed stickers, you won’t get tech support anymore but who cares about Apple tech support?

      It’s not illegal but manufacturers are making it harder to impossible. That must be illegal.

      Those stickers have no legal weight anyway, at least in the United States. The manufacturer has to prove that you damaged the device, whether the sticker is there or not. They can not refuse service just because a sticker is missing.

      Isn’t it sometimes? Like if involved breaking something encrypted, I thought it was. And possibly other cases as well. At least in the US thanks to the DMCA and others.
