Hey all,

I stumbled across this article from The New York Times about companies that
sell products that connect to the Internet and how companies modify and
change them and basically add service fees or brick them sometimes.
Interesting information about the device ownership and the broader “right
to repair” movement. Apparently awards are given our for hackers who can
get devices working again. Thought you might enjoy!
