Last I checked most manufacturers have a limited time warranty on pretty much all appliances, especially short on low end appliances; after that you are on your own. So I don’t see your point here? The router can still route, but you know have a much bigger chance of it “failing” by being hacked. Equally so your refrigerator compressor can die easily after 5 years and the manufacturer won’t have to pay you a cent or try to repair it. You are truly on your own after the warranty
- swiftcoder 2y agoThe big difference here is that there is an established network of 3rd parties who you can engage to put a new compressor in your fridge after the warranty expires. No such supply chain exists to patch proprietary firmware/software after the support period.
