In exchange for selling them repair parts, Samsung requires independent repair shops to give Samsung the name, contact information, phone identifier, and customer complaint details of everyone who gets their phone repaired at these shops, according to a contract obtained by 404 Media. Stunningly, it also requires these nominally independent shops to “immediately disassemble” any phones that customers have brought them that have been previously repaired with aftermarket or third-party parts and to “immediately notify” Samsung that the customer has used third-party parts.
What I will now say is going to be useless, but I will say it anyways
Until we all stop buying the latest gadget from predatory, abusive companies that steal and sell our data, try to lock us into their “ecosystem”, force advertisements on platforms that we are paying for, this crap will never stop.
It’s easy to punish Samsung. Don’t buy their products
The majority of people are unaware or just don’t care.
Yikes, sounds like a psycho ex
