minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•9 months agoNo they are producing more than people need. People are buying what they want.

The problem is that ethics alone as a reason to buy is shit because it’s better to go used ethically. It’s the reusable grocery bag of phones as long as it’s not comparable to other phones.
