  • Anyone who takes them up on their offer to buy a new Kindle should check themselves in for a mental health screening.

    They just told all of their customers that you cannot trust a device you buy from them will continue to work in the future. So buy one from a different manufacturer and hope they aren’t as evil

    I get that it may be expensive to perpetually support old devices but there is surely a middle ground between supporting them and bricking them.

    Even if you have a large library on kindle I hope you have the ‘calibre’ to move devices.

    If it is only about feeling safe as opposed to actually being safe then I think this would not change things much.

    Psychopaths are very good at getting people to trust them which would imply feeling safe also. Common things they end up doing are becoming CEO’s, or serial killers largely as a result of that trait. Of course there are exceptions.
