yup.. once my current rigs fail, I'm not replacing them. I'm just abandoning it and they can do whatever.
I've checked out. I have zero subscriptions, own all my software, could afford to replace if I need to but... why... it's a literal cesspool of corporate trash and I want nothing to do with it.
same with the cellphone.. when it dies, I honestly don't think I care to even replace it. might get hosted VoIP somewhere and have a landline in the house.. beyond that, whatever .. not my issue and if places like the Bank etc try to force it well.. tough. I'll go into the branch like it's 1995 and update my paper passbook and withdraw cash for the week
Tried that lately? Hours are shrinking, lines are growing.
