Ok, fine, it should be mandatory then that EOL hardware be unlocked and able to run FOSS operating systems.
iPhone 7, for instance, has plenty of life left in the hardware, yet are being “recycled” due to ended IOS support.
My primary reason for not jailbreaking or rooting my phone is that my banking apps detect it and fail to run.
One of those banking apps (Called BankID) is basically mandatory for living in the Sweden (Similarly in Norway & Denmark).
It's basically an identity verification system that keeps some kind of signed private key in your phone, meaning you can identify yourself for basically everything.
Without that App, the other apps that control my life (my Digital mailbox, my electric company, my phone company, my bank, even paying for things online) do not work.
On the other hand, I don’t think Netflix has ever dropped support for its oldest API. As of two or three years ago, Netflix still worked on an original iPad (2010). It was the first mobile device to get Netflix support.
Spotify also worked on my first generation iPad as well as a few other streaming services like Crackle and YouTube
