I will absolutely remember the companies that are saying “fuck the consumer” when I go to purchase anything going forward.

    Honestly which companies does that leave?

    I think it has to be considered by degree of consumer-fucking. Some companies, like Micron, are outright discontinuing their consumer brands while others are 'just' deprioritizing consumers to chase the AI bandwagon.

    It's those companies' prerogative to chase profits, but I'll never buy another Micron product again if they ever decide to come crawling back.
