The text (at bottom, outside of the block):
"AS STARTED ABOVE, USING THIS SDK TO CONNECT TO OR CONTROL, ANY COMPATIBLE FUJIFILM CAMERA WILL VOID THE CAMERA’S LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY."
I'm sure the FTC would like to have a word, about revoking a warranty by using intended software.
- justin_oaks 5y agoExactly, this part of the agreement may not void the warranty. Just like stickers on the outside of a product that say "Warranty void if broken" don't void the warranty. In fact, those stickers themselves are illegal: https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/04/11/601582169/warranty-void-if-removed-as-it-turns-out-feds-say-those-warnings-are-illegal https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/04/11/601582169...
- oh_sigh 5y agoIn fact, the Magnusson-Moss act makes it illegal to void a warranty even for 3rd party, aftermarket modifications to a product, unless it can be shown that the aftermarket modification is the cause of or contributed to the warranty claim. So even if you had some random black box that you plugged into your cameras USB port, and it would send all sorts of wild commands to the camera, that would not void your warranty unless the black box was actually responsible for the damage to the camera.
