As another user said, I've been boycotting US products and services. I still use Garmin since I have a watch, HRM, bathroom scale, speed monitor and cadence monitor from them.
I do use them less now since they're insisting on adding "try the new Garmin+ for free" ads everywhere on their platform.
I have a eufy doorbell cam I’ll be replacing after I move because the app is just flooded with ads. Aquara has one that supposedly ties into home assistant and frigate nicely.
If there were a product remotely in the ballpark, I'd consider switching. Fortunately, this is pretty much the only time in the past ~decade I can think of them doing this.
