Hi. In today’s episode, we look at Planned Obsolescence, the resulting mountains of e-waste, and why companies don’t want you to be able to fix their crummy products.

If you expect Cody to be nice to Apple, you will be very disappointed.

    I wonder how much gets recycled

    To put it simply.

    It doesn’t.

    It is still cheaper to dig new shit out of the ground (due to all the environmental costs being ignored) than it is to breakdown the many metals etc within a phone for reuse.
