I want to see meaningful pushback on this indefensible move of forcing customers to establish and maintain a relationship with the manufacturer in order to use the products they sell.

Other examples are: Wahoo, who locked the control of their products behind an account and login requirement for devices which had been working perfectly fine for years prior.

Roche, who killed their blood glucose app at the start of 2023 and forced all their users to move to a third party app, developed by one of their subsidiaries, which requires you to accept a data exfiltration clause, if they wish to continue the automagic on-device logging.

Don't use their products then? Nobody is forcing you to.

except every single manufacture is going down this road pretty much, they want to monetize all that data because more money equals more better, privacy be damned.

Laws. We need the force of law protecting us when entire industries work against the public good.
