I dont think its being pushed by far right or far left, I see both sides complaining about it which means there is factual evidence and experience to prove it a real issue. Crime is up in a lot of cities, example of a recent study in Denver

Exactly, I dont think this is a clumsy PR play as the OP suggested. All big cities are experiencing increase in homelessness, crime and violence, drug use. You see it in Austin, Denver, SF, Seattle, LA, Chicago. Many of these cities were

What kind of stuff breaks? (not nit picking). I used to have that issue on old laptops. But I run linux on a PC now and it's been pretty much issue free. Maybe something with a major release update. But always curious about others

Yeah if it takes 2 decades to make a product like this you are doing something wrong with your business. However it did take them 5 years to fix a bad keyboard on their macbooks. And prior to that 5 years to upgrade macbooks... so maybe?

A SAAS company never breaks an SLA. SLA's are written by the legal team. Uptime is maintained by the engineering team. They aren't even in the same building.
