I hope they can be held accountable for mistreating those 'transplants" (what an ugly word!) too. But I guess that would be easier here in EU than in USA.

For now it seems the military took over. They say 'temporarily', but they always say that... it might, as well, be just a change of the dictator. Let's hope it is not the case, this time.
When you pay them as long as you use the mouse, they have a business reason to keep it working as long as possible (so to use batter switches) and sending you a new one when one breaks can still be profitable for them. Software updates are less important here.
I guess for end users it will still be cheaper and more convenient to buy a new regular mouse with a one-time payment after the previous one breaks. And that is how electro-trash piles up...
Oil is lighter than water, so, in water, it will 'want to go up' rather than down. I guess something like reversed syphon could be possible. I am not sure if the density difference is enough for this to be practical, though.
Valid point, but leaving thins as is does not seem like the optimal solution. Maybe the mods could occasionally post examples of removed spam/bot content, for transparency and awareness. Leaving this to random users can end with more mistakes and actual abuse.
Also, the troll/bot comments and discussion around them will less disturbing outside of the intended context (where they were posted to cause disturbance or misinformation).
Unfortunately they started to play with AI too :-(
