Whats sad is it doesn’t even take much knowledge of technology to know the whole of Sunbirds “product” was a terrible idea even outside of security concerns.
“Hey! I’ve got a brilliant idea for a product that absolutely could not fail!, lets reverse engineer one of the prime services of one of the most protectionist and litigious companies in the world and publicly advertise and try to sell it to their competition and potential users as some sort of magic compatibility layer”! What could possibly go wrong?
It was a worse idea than Dolphin thinking they were going to get away with trying to monetize their Nintendo emulator.
EDIT: I was mistaken about Dolphin looking to charge for their emulator when they put it up on Steam, as pointed out by a few folks in the comments. They were just looking to distribute it on the platform. Still seems like wishful thinking to me though when talking about something related to Nintendo and IP.
The guys just a conartist one of the reasons I bought the Nothing phone 1 was the remarks no other phone would be on the horizon for a long time until they nailed it.
About 2 months later phone 2 is the only one the company cares about and every phone 1 update seems buggier and more rushed than the last.
I expect the same will happen to anyone with phone 2 when the inevitably spring a 3 out of nowhere.
