Woah, slow down (both of you). As a person who was THIS close to buying one of those in a store:
the packaging really hides how obnoxious these things are. I only noticed a small ~"wireless" symbol on the packaging last second. Seeing that symbol then reminded me of this amazing writeup I had stumbled upon months earlier by coincidence. Only then did I realize what I was about to get myself into.
Don't blame people who don't happen to read niche reverse engineering blogs for fun.
Do blame companies that invest heavily into making shitty products without being up front about it.
