TLDR?
Basically big companies keep trying to move towards the consumer not owning anything (phones/tractors etc with proprietary software/hardware) which generates a ton of waste and costs the consumer more. It goes over some things like things certain States are fighting back. Overall would highly recommend the channel in general
