Here are the concerns I care about at this time:
1. If Device Attestation/WEI takes off, and if it takes this new time-limited support lifetime into its attestation signature, then we'll see more physically healthy devices sent to the landfill. Devices that are reasonably fine for grandpa to play Mahjong on, but Google won't let her visit Facebook because WEI can't guarantee them their ad dollars, then it'll go to the landfill. I don't want to see this waste. I want the "support lifecycle" of a product to be the FULL lifecycle, including mandating a recycling program or something of the sort.
2. I want guarantees that I can keep using an old device after its support window closes. When Google decides to sunset the Nest Doorbell, I want to own it and be able to run it myself.
