    There should be efforts to ensure it never happens again. All companies who abandon products or services should be forced to open source all associated code.

    Why should greedy narcissists be allowed to waste humanities finite resources on their limp dick get-rich-quick schemes and failures?

      I don’t care too much when it comes to early adopter tech like this, which everyone knows will be obsoleted and laughable in 1 year. But the biomedical devices - we need a law about this, so people who get sense-restoring tech implanted in their bodies don’t get bricked because the company decides the product isn’t viable to bring to mass market.
