No!
That means people are still buying and using the device. This is a case for returning the product to Amazon/the store you brought it from citing the product is no longer fit for purpose because of changes made by the seller/manufacturer. If you live in a sensible country (sorry US) this should work.
This only stops if there is a clear and attributable loss of sales/increase in returns.
The class action suit against Sony for removing Linux from the PS3 really showed them.
What was the payout, $5 per owner?
Its not about getting money. Its about, in that case Sony geting a clear “this decision cost us money”.
That class action judgment was essentially a fee.
Fines that don’t take a significant proportion of a corporation’s yearly income until they unfuck whatever they did are just fees, they’re not effective.
Yeah I mean I wouldn’t buy one and I would encourage others not to. But if you already have it and can’t return it, make it your device, not theirs.
