I don't buy anything except indie games anymore. Sad but every mainstream video game studio is trying to fuck their own consumers now in their own special ways.

Spending less money doesn't necessarily mean you "cheaped out". Spending more money does not guarantee reliability.
You may not have liked it and it may not have been great but it likely got the job done perfectly fine.
Again, there is no trade-off. If you want to just plug your phone in and be tethered to a wall, you can still do that.
The NSA collects all kinds of information. That is an absolute pittance compared to the amount of data collected when it is required by law...
Like this is not that complicated.
Yes, it absolutely is, because the US government does not require companies by law to hand over any and all information they collect to them.
I see nothing wrong with using a Logitech controller for this purpose. They kept spares so even if they died somehow, you could just swap in another. And even if the batteries died, and you were a complete asshat and didn't bring any extras, you could likely just plug it in.
It's just hilarious that people are constantly talking about this controller and not the myriad of other legitimate safety red flags.
That's incredibly naive.
It abso-fucking-lutely is.
Does this really need an explanation?
-
Non-replaceable batteries provide zero benefits.

Swappable batteries allow you to just carry extras instead of being tethered to a charger. I used to literally never plug my phone in. Just swap batteries one or twice a day.

It's the first component to die in most phones, and people can't be bothered or don't realize you can have them replaced, so they just throw them in the garbage. That's why they started doing it in the first place.
No, for the same reason I haven't been interested in a long time; no promises for software updates. My Zenphone 6 got 1 update.

No one needs to pay them. Not being treated like garbage is sufficient.
