Today I discovered another youtuber who’s doing the Lord’s work on exposing planned obsolescence. His channel is Hayden Schreier. Louis Rossmann is another guy doing what he can to expose this crap and similar tactics. We really need to raise awareness of how cancerous this corporate culture has become. It’s the furthest thing from actual capitalism lately. It’s just corruption. The big corporations are effectively buying useful idiots to be “independent” reviewers and promoters for their products. All the while they are making the products less durable, less repairable, fighting aftermarket suppliers of better parts and software hacks to make them repairable, and using lawyers to attack negative reviews. It makes my blood boil! If companies are doing this stuff with cars and appliances, you know they are doing it with healthcare and medical related products too.
I think we all need to share the facts of stuff like this when we discover it. It’s crazy how much of it goes on and how hard big corporations will fight to suppress people who are exposing it.
