This was really thrown into sharp focus for me a couple of years back, when I read an article about how people with ocular implants are being left to go blind again because the company who made their implant has been bought by another company who doesn't want to continue support.

I just can't think about how callous that is, and if a company doesn't give a shit about that, why would they give a shit about a car?
