And this is why I don't think those clauses should be valid. There's no way to negotiate with Verizon over that; it's take it or leave it. Either you accept that they can take things away without recourse, or you don't g

Apple's notch came out like 3 months after the Essential phone had one? I don't think it's possible for them to have seen the notch, and then reengineered the phone in that short of a time.

Well, for one, that would require you to be able to have land to do so. I would be shocked if many of these people had an actual, freely available choice on the matter.

Yes, poverty is decreasing. That doesn't change the fact that people are starving, even right here in the United States, the richest nation on earth.

Nobody is begging any question. The answer is that it is for YOU to decide. I'm sorry if that's not a simple, yes/no answer for you, but the world isn't like that.

And these companies are also making it their job. I am not willing to abdicate their responsibility in the matter. They are the ones that chose, of their own free will, to push these appalling conditions onto people.
