Apple saying they will honor like they're in control and have a choice.

Well, didn't they play a huge role in the genesis of this law? I think they have some way to continue ignoring costumers.

They had the choice of not doing business in California, which is what they had threatened to do with previous right-to-repair and other consumer protection laws. In this case, they found a way to make money off it if so they are supportive of this bill now since they have successfully delayed it long enough to have an advantage over their competitors.
