Basically, If you own an "iDevice" Apple will soon have
the Right
to disable your camera if you are in an area where protests are taking place
Umm, what?! That's like describing me buying a gun by saying that I "will soon have the right to shoot people".
No it's not. Bullets don't ask you to click "I Agree" to an EULA waiving your rights before hitting you. Though if they were iBullets, I wouldn't be at all surprised if people
did
agree to such an EULA.
(Somehow I'm reminded of the forth panel of
this
xkcd strip.)
Will pretend to do unspeakable things (while actually eating a taco) for bitcoins:

Actually all Apple patented was the
enabling technology
for
someone else
to disable certain features.
Apple's not going to turn off your features, just the cops, restaurants, movie theaters and the like.
You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

When Apple modifies its EULA to include that, then you argue that Apple "will soon have the right".

No. When (and I strongly believe it will be
when
, not
if
) Apple modifies its EULA, then I will argue that Apple "
now has
the right". I will also point and laugh at Apple users saying "I told you so". Then I'll feel bad when I realise it's not funny.
