summary	The text discusses two perspectives on politics and technology: 1. Political philosopher Karl Popper proposes a new approach to governance, shifting the focus from "Who should rule?" to "How can we structure political institutions to limit the damage caused by bad or incompetent rulers?" This idea is contrasted with the current tech press's focus on disassembling products like the iPhone into parts and labeling it as a flaw, rather than examining patterns of behavior and vendor control over time and geography. 2. Science fiction author Cory Doctorow critiques Apple's practices, arguing that their complete control over the tech stack is an outrage. He asserts that connecting such behaviors across time and location is essential for understanding why companies like Apple might capitulate to certain pressures. Doctorow's piece serves as a reminder for the tech press to move beyond individual product dissections and analyze systemic patterns. In summary, the text highlights a divide between political philosophy and tech journalism, with Popper offering a new perspective on governance, while Doctorow emphasizes the importance of understanding broader patterns in technology and corporate behavior.
