Oh get a fucking grip… every company does forced obsolescence. You don’t sue because you were stupid enough to buy into it. You get smart and quit buying into it.
Agreed. My only counter was MS saying Windows 10 was the last operating system we would ever need to buy. I didn’t believe it, and neither did anyone in the IT space, but it sounded sane to end users.
Yes, it’s common therefore it is right!
I hate it as much as the next person, but it’s not illegal and the correct answer is quit buying their shit so that they go out of business and/or a competitor does it better.
I regret that I have but one downvote to give.
