i had an app on my iphone which my phone's operating system randomly decided to delete off my phone. thankfully, they replaced the icon with a shortcut to re-download the app from the app store. when i tapped it, it said "sorry this app no longer exists on the app store so it's gone forever". so they deleted my app! not the developer's app, sure the developer made the app but the app was mine, it was on my phone! and they deleted it!
everything is so ephemeral now that i don't develop any kind of memory of, or attachment to, anything technology-related anymore. no brand can do any specific thing for long enough to exist in brain
consumer choice nowadays is like a kind of "two guys with sawn-off shotguns, circling each other very slowly, while one attempts to hand the other a fistful of bottle caps in exchange for a rotten onion"
