Crippling is the act of causing any INTENTIONAL limitation to a product or device. For instance, in American cars, the firmware limits the maximum speed to 125MPH in the ECI chip.
DJI drones have imposed firmware limitations which cripple the AC's ability to be of use to the owner in the form of altitude restrictions and NFZs.

Putting those limits in place is not crippling at all.
Manufacturers intentionally place limits on their products for all kinds of reasons:To prevent damaging the product, to prevent potential injury to the user or others, to comply with legislation etc.
That's their perogative. It's their product and it's your choice to buy or not.

Really ? What particular changes in your ability to use your Phantom has DJI introduced since you bought yours?
Have have done anything that has reduced your ability to use your Phantom?
Imaging if Ford prevented you from starting your car because the president's motorcade was traveling within 30 miles of your location. It's absurd.
Yes, that would be absurd.
Just like shutting down all legitimate general aviation activity and even flying toy drones in a park or your backyard over a 9698 sq kilometre area just because the yellow-haired toad is in town.
But that's what your government has done.
Don't blame DJI for that.
I can't think of a government in the civilised world that restrictions with like you do in the "land of the free".
