Why would anyone buy that? Marginal gravity. Just an idea I'm pondering. Because for any product, no matter how ridiculous - whether it's the "I'm rich app" [0] or motorised spaghetti forks and other Chindogu [1], there's always some tiny minority of people who will buy it. Those people are the proverbial clueless rubes who have no real experience, sense of context or value, but discover some product and assume that "it's normal". Maybe they never needed a printer in their life, but suddenly need one, and the first thing they come across is this outrageous HP product. Without any corrective influences they just purchase. To this we add Erica Chenoweth's 3.5% rule [2]. Now this handful of idiots set a kind of precedent that accrues more and more "almost idiots",and eventually otherwise quite reasonable people are being sucked into a giant black hole of madness. In no time everybody wants a broken expensive, piece of crap that spies on you, and the last percentile of genuinely sensible people are left holding out - being mocked by the new majority as "unreasonable" Luddites who resists "progress".
