After a person has paid a premium for a device, such as the iPhone, why is it stealing for them to load software on their own device to make it work as they wish? Am I missing something here?
People who purchased the device, own it. Apple doesn't own the devices that it's customers purchased.
Would you feel the same way if, say, General Motors disabled the autos customers modified by adding different exhaust systems or fuel injection systems in the same way?. I believe that litigation would start almost immediately. Why would you suggest that Apple has the rights to control things at this level.
Can you help me understand your position?
