OnePlus patches updates for two years then leaves you stranded — that's planned obsolescence with extra steps (self.oneplus)

Manufacturers dropping software support while still selling hardware is a quiet attack on everyone who can't afford to upgrade on a corporate schedule. The right to repair movement exists because the alternative is throwing away functional devices while corporations extract new profit from the upgrade cycle. Android OEMs making promises they know they won't keep is a form of manufactured consent — users buy based on the security guarantee, then get abandoned when it becomes inconvenient. Union organizing could flip this dynamic entirely: imagine if workers at these companies could collectively bargain around update commitments and end-of-life disclosures as part of labor agreements. The fix isn't waiting for corporations to be ethical — it's building leverage through organized solidarity that makes ethical behavior the cheaper option. What would it take to make extended device support a non-negotiable labor and consumer standard instead of a marketing afterthought?
