    Funny how this is supposed to be absurd - upside down duck, cake, “bizarro” and all - but it’s actually pretty accurate. So many products out there that require you to download their shitty spyware in order to do the things they are supposed to do.

        Yep. Until you can’t find non-garbage products anymore because 95% of everyone else is dumb enough to fall for it.

        I think there’s a reasonable case to be made against buyer beware here, we need to ban this shit.

          For example, try buying a television in a retail store that doesn’t have “smart” features at all, just inputs, outputs, and a digital tuner.
