What 😄
Came here to post this. This CEO has a lot of amazing ideas...
How is a person so out of touch?
The same reason she thinks that AI should be in meetings....to bad she could be replaced by AI and nothing of value was lost....
previous job at unilever lol
Read her bio page at Logitech. Looks like she got into a leader role because she previously had a leader role. She is in the best case some CEO who brings "value" to a company trough enshittification, but she has zero background relevant to computers, software, hardware or peripheral.
I don't see how she would have first hand experience with her product line and create better products.
isn't it funny how the folks who actually study, design, and make things earn pennies compared to the C-suit gang that takes home the lion's share for diddling with money (and kids)?
Yes a subscription service for my... mouse please that sounds like an improvement.
Make all tools obtrusive lets go
I move my mouse and the cursor moves on screen. What other features is she planning to add?
An AI that moves the mouse on your screen so you don’t need to! Now you can go back to work while your mouse doom scrolls for you.
An AI that plays ads when you are idle with the mouse.
Not moving the mouse? Time for an ad.
I’d rather have no software with my mouse than this dystopian nightmare.
Yea, their logi+ software was sending out a firmware update or something that was bricking something, so now I use my keyboard and mouse without the software.
Yeah, every time I use my mouse I think "man I really wish this was an subscription service!"
Honestly I wouldn't mind if a company charged like, $1/month or something reasonable like that but for some reason some asshole made it standard practice to charge $10-$15/month for literally anything and now everyone uses that as the starting point for their "services"
I’m choosing to pronounce the first part of your handle as “roog” instead of pyre. Also, have an upvote. That’s way too many downvotes for sharing an earnest opinion.
Maybe if they have you the mouse for free a sub fee a per month would be reasonable. But it's a mouse. What killer software could one be paying for for a mouse subscription.
Yeah I was more thinking the mouse be free plus any replacements in the future.
Then you would break even after about 5 years ($60)
Unfortunately I believe that was still a mouse you'd have to pay for up front, you'd just get a subscription on top of that.
Oh, I’m sure you pay the whole price up front. You can’t think like a rational person with these things, only a capitalist. The only thing that changes is that now Logitech has a stable revenue stream and gets to turn off your mouse if you stop paying for even a second.
sad to see I’ll never buy logitech again. gotta tell all the walmart homies not to either
