Even the need to "reverse engineer" something that you paid for and ostensibly own, though, is overwhelmingly insulting and in some ways (though obviously not technically legally, ethically) is basically directly challenging public perception of property ownership. It's not even like it's say, a watch that I might actually need specialist equipment or knowledge to repair/maintain. It's actually something I'm expected to at some point, be required of me, but is tactically not provided to me as to benefit a private entity. And arguments can be made about who's ethical and economical burden it is to make documentation, but the fact is it'd just save an overall immense amount of societal time and productivity for those who already have the potential to provide documentation, to do so. And so the expectation that we are left to our own devices on various forums and social media websites that may or may not be SEO'd by google to be brought to our attention with the right combination of keywords. Is kind of baffling, to be honest. If it's easy for us, it should be even easier and quicker for them. Especially when most in many countries are unfortunately reliant on such things, many of them may not be reverse engineerers, or even versed in google-fu.
