As one person commented on my use of my old Pocophone, they are also MP3 players. -

They do not. I know this personally, but let's use some evidence instead. For example, Europe and other nations aren't drenched in neverending ads like we are (think soccer being the most popular world sport and yet there are no ads during/delaying the gameplay itself, unlike every sport in America). The truth is that it's all just a ridiculous shell game between marketing/ad people who want to keep their jobs and websites/networks who want to keep charging for air time for ads to be funded. And, of course, the enshittification of everything for ever increasing quarterly returns for Wall Street only matters here, not everywhere else. We all know that consumers ignore commercials and block the ads now, so we know it doesn't lead to enough sales to justify this cashola merry-go-round. But they are still thinking like this is still the good old days of TV and, quite frankly, they don't know any better... The better solution, of course, is sponsorship -- a way of advertising your product and associations in a meaningful way, without bombarding annoyed consumers with the same damn ad for the same damn product at every single forced commercial break. -

That is also my understanding of Apple's support for their older devices. -

I think I know one more place where it'll be plugged to nag us: Feedback. "Did you like our service?" "Would you like to give us a rating?" "Where can we improve?" "I'll ensure your expertly crafted expletives reach the concerned teams"
