The fact that a lot of ordinary people jailbreak their iPhones shows that
openness is something that they at least want - it's not that easy to
jailbreak since Apple keeps closing the loopholes, but there's a lot of
demand for DIY and commercial jailbreaks.

For the people that I know that use their iPhone the ability to jailbreak it
is a requirement for making the phone useful. This may not be typical, but
certainly eliminating the troublesome restrictions creates a huge increase
in the utility of the thing.
