After my Nexus 5X bootloop problem, this about puts the nail in the coffin of LG phones, for me.
By the way, what's wrong with this scenario?
= Lots of people want a headphone jack. "You can't have one."
= Lots of people want limits on tracking -- and on incessant nagging to enable settings that track. 'Wall of deafening silence.'
= People want some semblance of privacy. Sign on Chicago Apple Store door, to the effect of: 'By entering, you agree to let us collect and use your image for [non-security purposes].'
Gee, it's almost as if we aren't even customers. Certainly not customers who are listened to and respected.
But of course! I should simple sit back and let Google/Apple/X's AI tell me what I want!
P.S. Bluetooth is still significantly suck-y. And, on my "temporary" two and a half month old current-generation Motorola phone that I bought to tide me over after the Nexus 5X bootlooped, I've not yet received a patch for the recent Bluetooth vulnerability (not to mention the current WPA fiasco). Fortunately, if somewhat inconveniently, that Motorola G5+ has a headphone jack.
SO... Am I going to go from that "tide me over" Motorola to the Pixel 2, that I was waiting for?
I'm more and more dis-inclined to do so.

For any product that is shipped at large enough scale: * The barriers to entry to replace that product at similar cost and apparent feature set get necessarily higher * The share of overall demand which is de facto inelastic increases, and therefore decreases in quality have a disproportionately low effect on overall demand Regulation is a necessary tool to fight this phenomenon.
