- gruez 1y agoIf you read my comment carefully, you'd see I'm not objecting to regulations that devices must support programming, only to the argument that such regulations will meaningfully reduce e-waste.

Please try to refrain from unscientific thinking You're accusing me of "unscientific thinking", but you're basically making an argument from ignorance? You haven't provided any rebuttals to my argument, and you're basically arguing "we haven't tried so if you try to argue against it you're WRONG".
