Gentle reminder that you should not use this as an excuse to buy things imo. I see too many people just replacing perfectly good items. It’s much better if there’s an anti consumption stance (use what you have, repair, buy used, buy, local, buy regionally) in that order.
As an addition: tech from American companies should be replaced. You can’t trust it. Android (as it exists in the Google ecosystem) is spyware, same with iOS. If you can’t replace those operating systems with your own (which is usually possible but complicated) then it’s really not a good idea to have them in your home.
Exactly, if you already have American stuff that doesn’t depend on them making still money on it right now, no need to replace it ASAP. Buy when it breaks or need to change, don’t buy American again.
