YC funding.
> so are you not at least afraid of the lawsuits?
That will happen after the founders "successfully exited" so why would they care.
If I compare the Pixel 6 Pro I'm using at the moment to current models, they are functionally identical. The only reason to upgrade might be getting a fresh battery and access to firmware updates.
Otherwise I'd be happy to continue using it for the next 10 years.
4. Do a "successful exit" and let some other fool figure out how to make the company profitable.
There needs to be a wealth maximum, afterwards you just get taxed 100%.
Yes, obviously. That's how every insurance works.
Or maybe getting google and apple to make the app not available in the EU.
Yes, that's what the G in GPU stands for. It's great to see that there are still manufacturers that understand this.
They have Google ads on their site promoting a paid ad free version of their site? WTF? Why would you pay google to put ads for on your site for your own service?
Meanwhile legacy EV maker Tesla continues doing nothing other than silly toy projects. (Or rather hyping up silly toy projects and actually doing nothing at all)
Huh, phones are getting heavier, bulkier and more expensive already with every new generation? There's no regulation needed for that. Also more fragile because everything is made of glass.
Those don't really exist anymore.
> Do we need to regulate something that isn't a problem?
It is a problem and needs to be regulated.
> All regulation has downsides, is it worth paying this price here?
Of course the upsides of regulations are worth it. The downsides might cause slight inconvenience to the manufacturer, so that doesn't really matter.
