It is now possible, by plugging any device to a computer, to have an agent wipe it and turn it into anything you want. There have been fights for the right to repair, the right to modify software, especially for US farmers. Now we have the means to wipe our devices and de-enshittify our applications.

This is an incredible turn of events. I don’t expect people to vibe code their oven’s firmware, but seeing all the hacking around esp32 devices and discarded devices brings in a new source of tinkering wonder. The future is prehensible.
