Any opinion? This seems to be an important consumer rights topic. Should products you buy be allowed to have digital locks so companies can essentially do what ransomware does and make you pay for them when they feel like it? E.g the air conditioner in your car randomly stops working one day unless you pay a monthly fee. I think what this guy is doing to push for right of ownership and right to repair and such is pretty important work. Would love to see this FutureHome firmware defeated.
