The EU need to move to E-waste such as this next. Either hardware that has no functionality with a subscription or permanent support needs to be banned, or there should always be a provision of access to SERIAL commands, an api, or the code needed to run these devices should be able to be use these devices locally. This doesn't stop companies offering more value, say an app or something to manage things, so you stick with them, but it does mean the whole device isn't bricked when the original manufacturer stops offering the service.
