    Yeah, I can’t blame people for engrained/culturally accepted consuming habits. That said, I find conversations around trade-in value of iPhones/Pixels/Watches to be so difficult. Like, do you really think you’re coming out ahead of Apple or Google on these deals? Just another drug in the ante.

      I agree that system change is needed and all blame cannot be laid on individuals. These companies do pour billions into exploiting everything they can about human psychology.
