If we lived in this world, companies could just change hands whenever they wish to disgorge their debts. “We’re owned by a different shell holding company now, it’s not our problem.” See the issue? Here’s another way of framing this point:

When they write about putting this chip in the MacBook, do they mean physically cracking the device open and putting the chip inside? If so, where does the space come from? doesn't that void the warranty?
