Yeah, nowadays i try to buy many things that are "not smart" in order to avoid what you experienced with the smart scale. That being said, i wonder if what you're asking for is more on the warranty side, rather than security/promise side? To clarify, i am 100% in agreement with you that after a company stops supporting a product, they should open source it (which could create a secondary ecosystem of techs who offer services to support said open source software if a person is not inclined to manage the OSS themselves, etc.)...However, technically wouldn't a company's "promise" to support software be more like a warranty? And in that case, whatever gov. agency who oversees warranties would need to nudge business to comply...nevertheless both this cybermark, a warranty on software lifecycle, and other things are the LEAST that shoild exist nowadays.
- heresie-dabord 2y ago> try to buy many things that are "not smart" This is the best strategy, but let's be clear... consumers who make a purchase have a reasonable expectation of owning a durable product that does not increase the threat surface of consumers' lives. This means that the product requirements should be clear and the supply chain must be secure. Until a "trust label" can guarantee these principles, the proposal is just another prop in a grand security theatre.
