Yay! Now I can have a unit for $70... so long as I finally sign up to Facebook to be able to use it!

Uh. I think I'd rather pay $1000 than do that.

$70, blue colour only with white trim, have to sign-in to Facebook to use, programmable only using Hack language, shows targeted ads in peripheral vision area.

That just shifts $930 to hidden costs. Someone pays either way.

Doesn't matter, it's not my money that is paid.

You still pay, just not with dollars.
