Razer’s account management interface includes a “Human Verification” feature that encourages users to verify their identity through World ID, an identity system operated by Tools for Humanity. The feature is presented as a way to obtain a “human badge” and receive promotional incentives, including Razer Silver rewards, during normal account usage.

I don‘t own Razer products but I knew it was over for them when they revealed the tabletop waifu echo dot knockoff. They‘re too far gone.

Anyone else had a knee jerk reaction to dump their Razer product in the trash before even clicking on the article?

yes. luckily my viper ultimate is very old and starting to act weird.

any recommendations for alternatives? I need the mouse to be plug-in and wireless, so I can move between my office and field setup.

I think the Logitech super light might be a good option. Should have wireless and plug in for wired and charging

Fuck Logitech, too.
