Good point. Planned obsolescence has always been a valid threat against our financial futures. Pushed software updates can secretly render IOT devices useless or slow them down. i predict there will be a ton of class action suits in years to come over this, the real tragedy is that bilked consumers will likely never be the ones who recover the loss. It's unfortunately the way of capitalism.
