Basically yeah, it's cheaper to use chemicals other than what's approved to make a chemical vape. We were seeing a bit of an endemic of kids being hospitalised because of them.

It's worth keeping in mind these vapes were coming from the same place where even baby formula wasn't off limits to substitute dangerous chemicals into to save a buck.

Unfortunately not bullshit.

Here in Australia, just about every tobacco store was selling them under the counter to kids, often still wearing their school uniforms. Worst still, most of the vapes were dodgy grey market imports with undeclared and often dangerous chemicals in them as well as nicotine. There were more of these stores near schools then there were stores that sell candy.

Common sense dispenery laws for both vapes and recreational cannabis like Canada would make sense here too but our politicians are too beholden to corporate interests and think of the children fear mongering.

Chinese phones are generally pretty good and cost a lot less so it's not surprising at all.

How long until this trickles down into the major distros?

They could have just paid the CEO a little less to cover it too. It was just greed so they could sell the data at a pittance, even though the cat is already out of the bag.

They want to actually do it and be the one to do so.

It's happenend with the AUR too.

Snaps however have a certain expectation that newer/inexperienced users should be able to trust them.

I'm perfectly fine with the unwashed masses flocking to non-federated services, it means things will remain sane a while longer over here.
