Fuck yeah, and fuck any company that does that shit
I.e. Apple
“We need to cut down the insane cycle of churning through personal electronics”
Translation: We need to slow down the pace of innovation!
The innovation of DRM and Intels SGX extention is the reason no current-gen PC can play 4K Blurays in 4K.
Of course they can! You just need to download your blurays from reputable sources.
Be careful what you wish for though. Electronics, and software in particular, rapidly drop in reliability as the parts stray from tightly restricted boundaries and become open to anyone. “Hey, this app crashes on my phone now.” Repairing a phone too wouldn’t be cheap either, you’d have to have someone soldering and resoldering a very fine circuit board. I think most people would just replace it.
This is literally nonsense fear mongering by someone who doesn’t understand how electronics and electronic repair work.
You don’t understand how consumer goods work
