It's an interesting phenomenon. Something like this happens every week or two, and then these threads basically just become cope, with vague advice that most people can't easily do ("oh, just desolder the eSim contacts, it'll be fine"), as though that is in any way a longterm solution to corporate overreach in our daily lives.
What if we all decided to actually work together to fix this terrible situation? Unfortunately, it will involve collective action, and holding companies accountable who are otherwise very averse to that sort of thing. But dear God, we can't keep "why don't you just"-ing forver as the world closes in around us, people.
If we want a better world, we are going to have to build a better world.
First you have to pick one thing to work on. Just one. Then you have to find all the people who agree with you that ONE thing is the most important thing to pick, and get help on crafting a message that will stick, develop a theory of change, and work backwards from that theory to actionable efforts the people you recruit can do.
It's hard work. I've done it. I am happy to help you do it. Let me know.
