    Generating planet-harming e-waste out of brand new phones to spite thieves who are largely motivated by economic desperation…

    What an American idea.

    Edit: Your downvotes have changed my mind. Now I love corpo killswitches on all of the devices I own. /s

      Well the thieves should be stealing from corporations and not peoples houses. That’s something I can get behind.

      Not bricking these devices will just mean that more people do it.

        Nice distinction between personal and private property. There is a lesson here folks

            Corps are not people and they should never get the same respect as us shiti organics.

              I never said they were. I’m saying I’m all for fraud and stealing from stores but not off someone’s porch or house.

                We are aligned Iwas just clarifying the distinction between the two.

                Personal property is owned by humans, “private” property is a term that got diluted when corporates were given all of these rights without any “personal” responsibility

      The US isn’t as bad as some Americans. In Ecuador it’s literally illegal for any business to sell used phones. The reason is to discourage phone theft.

      Its really sad :(

      I’m about to take all your shit out of economic desperation…it’d be one thing if we didn’t have literal free food everywhere and free shelter may not be what you like but it’s there plus we give fucking smartphones away for free in the USA.
