NEW: Everything is a subscription now — your printer, your refrigerator, even your car. It’s all just another way for greedy corporate execs to rake in profits. You’re forced into renting everything you already own, and their revenue goes up and up and up.

I appreciate the research conducted and work required to publish these videos.

The only way to fight back against this is to stop buying stuff that has these models. The reason companies are getting away with it is because people are paying it.

In 2001 my HP home printer flashed a message that I could not print any more until it was serviced. I discovered the only way to print was with a software patch that reset pages printed back to 0. It lasted me 10 more years and I replaced it with another brand.

This is the world the WEF wants, resist it while you still can!

The first tool maker that tries this shit is going to FO real quick what trades people think of that idea. 😂

How is people choosing to subscribe to anything a problem?

I only just noticed this when I tried to buy an updated Quicken software pkg from Intuit (b/c my one in use is from 2013), and they don't offer them -- only a subscription you have to sign up for to download an online-only ap.

Even shares in wall street are not even in your name. Buy through Fidelity, Robinhood, Charles Schwab. They are all just an IOU. The shares never move or are in your name. The only way to do so is remove it from DTCC and put it directly in your name:

Omg … I’ve got a 2003 Pathfinder with no electronics and it’s running fine at 200k miles. Gonna keep it humming … and my old HO printer too!
