Consumer Rights Wiki - User contributions [en]

Projects:Archive everything

Doomguy:

This project aims to get as many reference links as possible on the wiki switched over to archival links, instead of live links.

== The need to fight link rot ==
Everywhere on the internet, you get link rot - where linked pages either get taken offline, or changed, and the link is no longer useful for its original purpose. Link rot is a doubly serious issue for the Consumer Rights Wiki, as fairly substantial points of fact about companies or incidents may hang on our references, which will often point to a company's own website. The best available way to counter link rot is through archival, and this page serves as a hub for making sure every wiki article has its references archived.

Of particular importance are any links to central pieces of evidence used to support a claim of fact related to something a company has said or done, especially if it is on the website of a company, and can be taken down by them at any time. A reference supporting a more commonly available and frequently changing fact like 'Apple's market cap is $x' is not as important to archive as a company's FAQ, but it certainly won't hurt to do so.

Certain webpages are un-usable when archived, typically due to paywalls or reliance on video content (e.g. Youtube videos), and archival may not be appropriate for links leading to this kind of page.

== What you need to do ==
The best possible option is to archive a site in as many places as possible, but any archival link is much better than none at all.

The correct formatting for an archived citation will look something like this:

<code><nowiki>{{Cite web |author=BwE |title=BwE PS4 NOR Validator & BwE SerialReader Script by BetterWayElectronics |url=https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |website=PSHAX |date=27 Nov 2018 |access-date=12 Nov 2025 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250408175450/https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |archive-date=8 Apr 2025}}</nowiki></code>

The full list of possible fields can be found here: [[wikipedia:Template:Cite web]]. All you need to do is archive the relevant un-archived webpage (or find an archived copy closer to the date the reference initially accessed it), and then update the reference with the archival link.

This can either be done through the source editor (in which case citations will look like the text block above) or through the visual editor's citation tool (this can be found by clicking Insert -> More... -> Citation, or pressing crtl+shift+k).

==The list==

Below is a table of all pages on the wiki, and the current status of their references. Last updated with new pages on 20/12/2025.

Doomguy: Updated Status and Archival sites used

This project aims to get as many reference links as possible on the wiki switched over to archival links, instead of live links.

== The need to fight link rot ==
Everywhere on the internet, you get link rot - where linked pages either get taken offline, or changed, and the link is no longer useful for its original purpose. Link rot is a doubly serious issue for the Consumer Rights Wiki, as fairly substantial points of fact about companies or incidents may hang on our references, which will often point to a company's own website. The best available way to counter link rot is through archival, and this page serves as a hub for making sure every wiki article has its references archived.

Of particular importance are any links to central pieces of evidence used to support a claim of fact related to something a company has said or done, especially if it is on the website of a company, and can be taken down by them at any time. A reference supporting a more commonly available and frequently changing fact like 'Apple's market cap is $x' is not as important to archive as a company's FAQ, but it certainly won't hurt to do so.

Certain webpages are un-usable when archived, typically due to paywalls or reliance on video content (e.g. Youtube videos), and archival may not be appropriate for links leading to this kind of page.

== What you need to do ==
The best possible option is to archive a site in as many places as possible, but any archival link is much better than none at all.

The correct formatting for an archived citation will look something like this:

<code><nowiki>{{Cite web |author=BwE |title=BwE PS4 NOR Validator & BwE SerialReader Script by BetterWayElectronics |url=https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |website=PSHAX |date=27 Nov 2018 |access-date=12 Nov 2025 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250408175450/https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |archive-date=8 Apr 2025}}</nowiki></code>

The full list of possible fields can be found here: [[wikipedia:Template:Cite web]]. All you need to do is archive the relevant un-archived webpage (or find an archived copy closer to the date the reference initially accessed it), and then update the reference with the archival link.

This can either be done through the source editor (in which case citations will look like the text block above) or through the visual editor's citation tool (this can be found by clicking Insert -> More... -> Citation, or pressing crtl+shift+k).

==The list==

On 26 February 2025, [[Amazon]] removed the "download and transfer via USB" feature from their website. This means [[Amazon Kindle]] users are no longer able to download their purchased e-books from Amazon's website to their computers using the "download and transfer via USB" feature. A message describing this change appeared on the page for the download feature a few weeks before the feature was removed.<ref name="theverge">{{Cite web |author=Andrew Liszewski |date=14 Feb 2025 |title=Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books |url=https://www.theverge.com/news/612898/amazon-removing-kindle-book-download-transfer-usb |archive-url=https://archive.ph/QNFuC |archive-date=14 Feb 2025 |publisher=The Verge |language=en |format=article}}</ref>

==Background==
Amazon allows purchasing e-books on their platform. These e-books are designed to be used with Amazon Kindle devices and the Kindle app. The "download and transfer via USB" feature allowed users to download purchased e-books on their computers. The intended use for this was to allow people to transfer e-books from their computer to their Kindle, without requiring the Kindle to have an internet connection. The "download and transfer via USB" feature was available since the early days of Kindle, when many devices didn't have {{Wplink|Wi-Fi}} capabilities, such as the Kindle 1, Kindle 2, and Kindle DX.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web|url=https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Amazon_Kindle_1|publisher=MobileRead Wiki|title=Amazon Kindle 1|language=en|format=wiki page|date=21 Nov 2011}}</ref><ref name=":2">{{Cite web|url=https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Amazon_Kindle_2|title=Amazon Kindle 2|publisher=MobileRead Wiki|language=en|format=wiki page|date=21 Nov 2011}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_DX|date=15 Apr 2014|title=Kindle DX|format=wiki page|publisher=MobileRead Wiki|language=en}}</ref>

===Reasons for feature===
*Allowed users to transfer books to Kindles without an internet connection. Older devices may no longer be able to connect.
*Let users create backup copies of their purchased e-book library.
*Provided a way to access books in the older AZW3 format, which is more amenable to format conversion than newer formats due to less restrictive DRM.
*Gave users more control over their purchased content.

===DRM implications===
As well as the intended usage, customers used this feature to create backups of their Kindle libraries and to convert the e-books to other formats to use with non-Kindle devices. Amazon Kindle e-readers use a proprietary format to store e-books, and a lot of the e-books contain [[Digital rights management|DRM]], which needs to be removed to use the e-books with non-Kindle devices. Newer Kindle devices use the KFX format, which makes it almost impossible to remove DRM. Since the download and transfer feature used the older AZW3 format, people with newer Kindles could use this feature to download their e-books in a format where the DRM can be removed.<ref name="theverge" />

==Removal of download and transfer via USB==
In February 2025, Amazon added a notice next to the download button whenever users accessed the "download and transfer via USB" feature. This notice said that the feature would be removed on February 26th. After that day, customers were no longer able to download their purchased e-books from the Amazon website.

Customers will still be able to download e-books to their Kindles, but will either have to use the Kindle store on the device or the "Deliver or Remove from Device" option on the Amazon website.<ref name="theverge" /> Both of these options require the e-reader to have an internet connection.

This isn't the first time Amazon has made changes affecting customers' access to their purchased e-books. For instance, Amazon previously removed books customers had purchased since the company that uploaded them didn't have the rights to the content.<ref>{{Cite web |author=Michael Kozlowski |date=14 Feb 2025 |title=Amazon is not to be trusted anymore with their Kindle e-reader |url=https://goodereader.com/blog/kindle/amazon-is-not-to-be-trusted-anymore-with-their-kindle-e-reader |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/srsIB |archive-date=15 Feb 2025 |publisher=Good e-Reader |language=en |format=article}}</ref>

==Customer response==
This change has caused significant backlash from customers.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMoCzeGnIss|title=Amazon are changing the way you own your Kindle books - you have 10 days to react|date=16 Feb 2025|publisher=YouTube|author=CriminOlly|format=video|language=en}}</ref> This is due to the following reasons:

*The change makes it much harder for customers to read e-books they have purchased on non-Kindle devices.
*Customers are now required to connect their Kindle e-readers to the internet if they want to download books purchased on Amazon.
*The change makes it harder for customers to move away from Amazon to another e-book platform, since customers are not able to keep the e-books they purchased through Amazon.

After the announcement, many consumers downloaded their purchased e-books with the download and transfer feature while the feature was available. Many people have also moved to other providers to buy e-books going forward.

Other users resorted to {{Wplink|Privilege escalation#Jailbreaking|jailbreaking}} their devices to ensure continued access to previous features. This can be done using tools such as [https://kindlemodding.org/jailbreaking/WinterBreak/ WinterBreak], which allow users to run custom applications like [https://github.com/koreader/koreader/wiki/Installation-on-Kindle-devices KOReader], a unified eBook reader that supports PDF, DjVu, EPUB, FB2, and many other formats—on Cervantes, Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook, and [[Android]] devices.

==Effect on original Kindle devices (Kindle 1, Kindle 2, & Kindle DX)==
The Amazon Kindle 1 (2007), Kindle 2 (2009), and Kindle DX (2009) relied on EVDO and 3G networks for wireless book downloads via Amazon’s Whispernet service.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> However, with the global shutdown of these older networks by mobile carriers, these early Kindle models are no longer able to download purchased Kindle books wirelessly in most regions.

Since e-books can no longer be purchased from the Kindle Store and downloaded, there is no way to get them onto these devices.

*Users are no longer be able to download Kindle books to a computer for manual transfer to their device via USB.
*Kindle books that were downloaded before this date can still be transferred manually.
*Any new purchases will require a WiFi-enabled Kindle, a 4G-enabled Kindle or access to Amazon’s Kindle apps to read.
*This effectively bricks older Kindles for the use case of reading newly purchased Kindle books

====Remaining functionality====
*The Kindle 1, Kindle 2, and Kindle DX still support USB file transfers for non-Amazon content, including:
**DRM-free MOBI, PRC, and TXT files.
**Converted EPUB files using tools like Calibre.
**Public domain books from sites such as Project Gutenberg.
*Users who backed up their Kindle books before the 26 February 2025 cutoff can still manually transfer them via USB.

==Technical USB restrictions==
In 2023, Amazon changed how their Kindle devices interact with computers from a raw view of a file system using UMS ([[wikipedia:USB_mass_storage_device_class|USB Mass Storage]]) to a filtered view using the MTP ({{Wplink|Media Transfer Protocol}}).<ref>{{Cite web |date=31 Aug 2023 |title=Kindle Scribe no longer connects as USB drive |url=https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4352640 |archive-url=https://archive.ph/hkXML |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |publisher=MobileRead Forums |language=en |format=forum thread}}</ref>

MTP requires support on the operating system. Amazon had to provide macOS software to communicate with Kindles,<ref>{{Cite web |date=13 Nov 2024 |title=Amazon releases MTP USB File Manager for macOS |url=https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=364580 |archive-url=https://archive.ph/OQBWA |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |publisher=MobileRead Forums |language=en |format=forum thread}}</ref> and even Windows users had some issues. This change made download and transfer more complex for newer devices.

This change means that all files transferred to the device will have to pass through a software filter running on the device before being accepted. Currently, this filtering is ineffective as demonstrated by WinterBreak which uses the exposed HTML cache. Future software revisions can and will add restrictions, especially to "improve security."

Amazon has been pushing for content to go through Send-To-Kindle<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.amazon.com/sendtokindle|publisher=Amazon|title=Send to Kindle page}}</ref> instead of USB. This allows Amazon to restrict the usage of Kindle devices to display illicit content.

===Rockstar - GTA 5 move to kernel-level anti-cheat on PC after purchase===
{{Main|GTA 5 moves to kernel-level anti-cheat on PC after purchase}}
On September 17, 2024 (11 years after release), Rockstar implemented a controversial update that included a more invasive and dangerous kernel-mode anti-cheat made by BattlEye. This update retroactively restricted GTA Online usage to the Windows operating system, despite previously being fully functional on other operating systems like Linux and SteamOS. Despite the BattleEye anti-cheat being Linux compatible with minimal effort, Rockstar still chose to not support the operating system, hence leaving buyers without the product they paid for.

Due to the BattleEye anti-cheat being a requirement to run GTA V, if a customer decides not to install it they won't be able to sign in to the Rockstar Launcher even if they wish to play singleplayer. There are workarounds for this, such as using offline mode on Steam, but the game requires you to activate its license by logging in to Rockstar Launcher atleast once when you install it and about every week you will need to reactivate this license to continue playing the singleplayer mode.

===Rockstar prevents borrowing games on Steam===
While many publishers permit Steam Family Sharing, a feature that allows users to share their game libraries with other accounts, Rockstar does not allow it.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=3 January 2026 |title=Family Sharing Not Allowed By Rockstar Games |url=https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/1g553ov/is_there_a_way_to_play_gta_5_on_family_sharing/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/sDACa |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |access-date=3 Jan 2026}}</ref>

===Rockstar forces arbitration agreement after the sale===
As of March 28, 2025, Rockstar Games Launcher is now forcing customers to accept the current terms and conditions which were updated February 28th, 2025. This includes an arbitration agreement that may only be opted out of using a letter delivered via official mail courier services.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=28 Feb 2025 |title=Rockstar Legal |url=https://www.rockstargames.com/legal |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/V3S8v |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |access-date=3 Jan 2026}}</ref> This affects owners of any games through the Rockstar Games Launcher as well as Steam users who own games that require it's use and completely blocks them from using the products they paid for until they agree.

2021 WhatsApp privacy policy updates

2026-01-04T02:05:05Z

Doomguy: Shortened Dates

In January 2021, WhatsApp announced an update to its privacy policy, set to take effect on February 8, 2021 (later delayed).<ref>{{Cite news |last=Taylor |first=Lenore |date=14 May 2021 |title=WhatsApp to force users to accept changes to terms of service |url=https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/may/14/whatsapp-to-force-users-to-accept-changes-to-terms-of-service |archive-url=https://archive.ph/oEXMC |archive-date=15 May 2021 |access-date=3 January 2026 |work=The Guardian}}</ref> Key changes to the policy included:

*Clarifying how WhatsApp processes user data.
*Detailing how WhatsApp works with businesses, including the use of WhatsApp Business accounts and how data from these interactions might be shared with Facebook.
*While WhatsApp had shared some data with Facebook since its acquisition in 2014, the update provided more explicit details about the types of data shared and the purpose, particularly concerning business communications.The announcement triggered widespread concern and confusion among users. Many users expressed discomfort with the prospect of more of their data being shared with Facebook, citing concerns about privacy and the potential for misuse of personal information. There was also frustration with the policy update requiring users to accept the new terms to continue using WhatsApp, leaving many feeling they had no real choice.

Initial reports and social media discussions led to some misinformation, with some users incorrectly believing WhatsApp would be able to read their private messages.

The privacy policy update led to a significant surge in downloads and usage of alternative messaging platforms.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Nicas |first=Jack |last2=Isaac |first2=Mike |last3=Frenkel |first3=Sheera |date=13 Jan 2021 |title=Millions Flock to Telegram and Signal as Fears Grow Over Big Tech |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/13/technology/telegram-signal-apps-big-tech.html |archive-url=https://archive.ph/iIOmC |archive-date=14 Jan 2021 |access-date=3 Jan 2026 |work=The New York Times}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Vengattil |first=Munsif |last2=Mathews |first2=Eva |date=13 Jan 2021 |title=Signal sees "unprecedented" growth after WhatsApp controversy |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/technology/signal-sees-unprecedented-growth-after-whatsapp-controversy-idUSKBN29I279/ |archive-url=https://archive.ph/ockvZ |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |access-date=3 Jan 2026 |work=Reuters}}</ref>

==Response==
Faced with widespread backlash and user migration, WhatsApp issued blog posts, FAQs, and social media statements to clarify the privacy policy update, emphasising that personal messages remained end-to-end encrypted and that the changes primarily related to business interactions. WhatsApp then announced a delay in the implementation of the new policy, pushing the deadline from February 8 to May 15, 2021. This was intended to allow more time to address user concerns and provide further explanations.
While the initial user exodus was significant, WhatsApp remains one of the most popular messaging applications globally.

Amazon Kindle

2026-01-04T01:58:07Z

Doomguy: Archive some links

{{InfoboxProductLine
| Title = Amazon Kindle
| Release Year = 2007
| Product Type = E-reader
| In Production = Yes
| Official Website = https://amazon.com/kindle
| Logo = Amazon kindle logo.png
}}

'''Amazon Kindle''' is a product line of e-readers made by '''[[Amazon]]'''.

==Controversies==
While EPUB has been the widely adopted format for digital books,<ref>{{Cite web |title=EPUB 3.3 |url=https://www.w3.org/TR/epub-33/ |url-status=live |access-date=16 Mar 2025 |website=[[w3.org]]}}</ref> the Kindle e-readers do not support this format natively. That means that it is not possible to load these files directly to the e-reader (which is called {{Wplink|sideloading}}), but have to be converted first to one of the proprietary formats the Kindle uses. Books directly purchased through Amazon come with [[DRM]] restrictions.

Around 2022 it was announced that there would be an option to read these files,<ref>{{Cite web |last=Schroeder |first=Stan |date=3 May 2022 |title=Amazon's Kindle will finally support epub files |url=https://mashable.com/article/amazon-kindle-epub |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/aRy3x |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |access-date=16 Mar 2022 |website=[[Mashable]]}}</ref> which was not through native support but via their e-mail service or dedicated app for the Kindle. Both send the file to the Kindle Cloud Library, and process the file on Amazon servers to the proprietary format.

As for the sideloading itself, newer firmware versions of Kindle e-readers only work with {{Wplink|Media Transfer Protocol|MTP}},<ref>{{Cite web |author=Nathan |date=20 Oct 2024 |title=Amazon Removed Download and Transfer Option for New Kindles |url=https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2024/10/20/amazon-removed-download-and-transfer-option-for-new-kindles/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/dXMCw |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |access-date=16 Mar 2025 |website=[[The Ebook Reader]]}}</ref> which led to controversy among {{Wplink|power user}}s as it disrupted existing workflow, which is to be expected. Book management software like Calibre<ref>[https://calibre-ebook.com/ Calibre]</ref> addresses this issue, and can do the conversion of file formats locally. The recent firmware updates have caused other issues, like faster battery drain than before and a slower user experience.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Kozlowski |first=Micheal |date=20 Aug 2024 |title=The Amazon Kindle is in a state of decline |url=https://goodereader.com/blog/kindle/the-amazon-kindle-is-in-a-state-of-decline |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/fKayf |archive-date=3 Jan 2026 |access-date=16 Mar 2025 |website=[[Good EReader]]}}</ref>

===Anti-repair and anti-ownership practices===
Kindle devices regularly receive bad scores in repair reviews.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=Frauenheim |first=Carsten |title=Kindle 11 Repair |url=https://it.ifixit.com/Device/Kindle_11 |url-status=live |access-date=16 Mar 2025 |website=[[iFixit]]}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite web |last=Rodriguez |first=Kris |title=Kindle Paperwhite 5 (11th Generation) Repair |url=https://ifixit.com/Device/Kindle_Paperwhite_11th_Generation |url-status=live |access-date=16 Mar 2025 |website=[[iFixit]]}}</ref> The baseline model has a replaceable battery, but provides no official replacement parts or repair instructions, and solders the power button and usb-c port to the motherboard.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":2">[https://www.ifixit.com/repairability/e-reader-repairability-scores e-reader repairability scores]</ref> The paper-white model uses excessive amounts of adhesive for the battery and motherboard, which make it harder to replace the battery.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> Most of the components of the device, most importantly the e-ink screen, are not available to the general market. Any stock for e-ink displays for these devices can rarely be found, and they usually approach the cost of the device itself, making repair uneconomical.

Kindle devices run a Linux distribution, however the bootloader is locked down and users have had trouble accessing debug ports on newer hardware.{{Citation needed|reason=Personal account}} Adding to this, Amazon relies on proprietary software and drivers which make it difficult to port a standard mainline Linux kernel onto their devices.{{Citation needed|date=30 Nov 2025}}

Projects:Archive everything

2026-01-03T22:20:01Z

Doomguy:

This project aims to get as many reference links as possible on the wiki switched over to archival links, instead of live links.

== The need to fight link rot ==
Everywhere on the internet, you get link rot - where linked pages either get taken offline, or changed, and the link is no longer useful for its original purpose. Link rot is a doubly serious issue for the Consumer Rights Wiki, as fairly substantial points of fact about companies or incidents may hang on our references, which will often point to a company's own website. The best available way to counter link rot is through archival, and this page serves as a hub for making sure every wiki article has its references archived.

Of particular importance are any links to central pieces of evidence used to support a claim of fact related to something a company has said or done, especially if it is on the website of a company, and can be taken down by them at any time. A reference supporting a more commonly available and frequently changing fact like 'Apple's market cap is $x' is not as important to archive as a company's FAQ, but it certainly won't hurt to do so.

Certain webpages are un-usable when archived, typically due to paywalls or reliance on video content (e.g. Youtube videos), and archival may not be appropriate for links leading to this kind of page.

== What you need to do ==
The best possible option is to archive a site in as many places as possible, but any archival link is much better than none at all.

The correct formatting for an archived citation will look something like this:

<code><nowiki>{{Cite web |author=BwE |title=BwE PS4 NOR Validator & BwE SerialReader Script by BetterWayElectronics |url=https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |website=PSHAX |date=27 Nov 2018 |access-date=12 Nov 2025 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250408175450/https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |archive-date=8 Apr 2025}}</nowiki></code>

The full list of possible fields can be found here: [[wikipedia:Template:Cite web]]. All you need to do is archive the relevant un-archived webpage (or find an archived copy closer to the date the reference initially accessed it), and then update the reference with the archival link.

This can either be done through the source editor (in which case citations will look like the text block above) or through the visual editor's citation tool (this can be found by clicking Insert -> More... -> Citation, or pressing crtl+shift+k).

===Rockstar - GTA 5 move to kernel-level anti-cheat on PC after purchase===
{{Main|GTA 5 moves to kernel-level anti-cheat on PC after purchase}}
On September 17, 2024 (11 years after release), Rockstar implemented a controversial update that included a more invasive and dangerous kernel-mode anti-cheat made by BattlEye. This update retroactively restricted GTA Online usage to the Windows operating system, despite previously being fully functional on other operating systems like Linux and SteamOS. Despite the BattleEye anti-cheat being Linux compatible with minimal effort, Rockstar still chose to not support the operating system, hence leaving buyers without the product they paid for.

Due to the BattleEye anti-cheat being a requirement to run GTA V, if a customer decides not to install it they won't be able to sign in to the Rockstar Launcher even if they wish to play singleplayer. There are workarounds for this, such as using offline mode on Steam, but the game requires you to activate its license by logging in to Rockstar Launcher atleast once when you install it and about every week you will need to reactivate this license to continue playing the singleplayer mode.

===Rockstar prevents borrowing games on Steam===
While many publishers permit Steam Family Sharing, a feature that allows users to share their game libraries with other accounts, Rockstar does not allow it.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=3 January 2026 |title=Family Sharing Not Allowed By Rockstar Games |url=https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/1g553ov/is_there_a_way_to_play_gta_5_on_family_sharing/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/sDACa |archive-date=3 January 2026 |access-date=3 January 2026}}</ref>

===Rockstar forces arbitration agreement after the sale===
As of March 28, 2025, Rockstar Games Launcher is now forcing customers to accept the current terms and conditions which were updated February 28th, 2025. This includes an arbitration agreement that may only be opted out of using a letter delivered via official mail courier services.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=28 Feb 2025 |title=Rockstar Legal |url=https://www.rockstargames.com/legal |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/V3S8v |archive-date=3 January 2026 |access-date=3 January 2026}}</ref> This affects owners of any games through the Rockstar Games Launcher as well as Steam users who own games that require it's use and completely blocks them from using the products they paid for until they agree.

===Rockstar - GTA 5 move to kernel-level anti-cheat on PC after purchase===
{{Main|GTA 5 moves to kernel-level anti-cheat on PC after purchase}}
On September 17, 2024 (11 years after release), Rockstar implemented a controversial update that included a more invasive and dangerous kernel-mode anti-cheat made by BattlEye. This update retroactively restricted GTA Online usage to the Windows operating system, despite previously being fully functional on other operating systems like Linux and SteamOS. Despite the BattleEye anti-cheat being Linux compatible with minimal effort, Rockstar still chose to not support the operating system, hence leaving buyers without the product they paid for.

Due to the BattleEye anti-cheat being a requirement to run GTA V, if a customer decides not to install it they won't be able to sign in to the Rockstar Launcher even if they wish to play singleplayer. There are workarounds for this, such as using offline mode on Steam, but the game requires you to activate its license by logging in to Rockstar Launcher atleast once when you install it and about every week you will need to reactivate this license to continue playing the singleplayer mode.

===Rockstar prevents borrowing games on Steam===
While many publishers permit Steam Family Sharing, a feature that allows users to share their game libraries with other accounts, Rockstar does not allow it.{<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=3 January 2026 |title=Rockstar Legal |url=https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/1g553ov/is_there_a_way_to_play_gta_5_on_family_sharing/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/sDACa |archive-date=3 January 2026 |access-date=3 January 2026}}</ref>

===Rockstar forces arbitration agreement after the sale===
As of March 28, 2025, Rockstar Games Launcher is now forcing customers to accept the current terms and conditions which were updated February 28th, 2025. This includes an arbitration agreement that may only be opted out of using a letter delivered via official mail courier services.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=28 Feb 2025 |title=Rockstar Legal |url=https://www.rockstargames.com/legal |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/V3S8v |archive-date=3 January 2026 |access-date=3 January 2026}}</ref> This affects owners of any games through the Rockstar Games Launcher as well as Steam users who own games that require it's use and completely blocks them from using the products they paid for until they agree.

}}[[wikipedia:Bambu_Lab|'''Bambu Lab''']] is a Chinese technology company that designs and manufactures 3D printers. The company is based in Shenzhen, China, with locations in Shanghai and Austin, Texas. It was founded in 2020 by a group of ex-[[DJI]] engineers.

Alongside 3D printers, Bambu Lab also sells its own brand of 3D printer filament on spools with embedded NFC tags that describe the filament material, type, model. The NFC tags are meant to interact with a corresponding NFC tag reader inside their proprietary AMS (Automatic Material System).{{citation needed}} A group of researchers by the name [https://github.com/Bambu-Research-Group/RFID-Tag-Guide Bambu Research Group] has since managed to reverse-engineer these tags, although not managing to make their own custom tags. Their project's documentation also mentions their efforts may be slowed down due to fear of repercussions from Bambu Lab.

Bambu Lab's official accompanying software package is [https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio Bambu Studio], which handles the converting ([https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Slicer_(3D_printing) slicing]) of digital model files into compatible [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code G-code] that the 3D printer can read and process. It is based on the open-source software [https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer PrusaSlicer], and draws the majority of its inner workings from it.<ref>{{Cite web |last=@bambulab |title=PC Software for BambuLab and other 3D printers |url=https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio#bambustudio |url-status=live |access-date=1 May 2025 |website=GitHub}}</ref>

===Authorization Control System (2025)===
{{Main|Bambu Lab Authorization Control System}}
In early 2025, Bambu Lab announced changes to future firmwares that would implement a centralised authentication mechanism that regulated connections and control over the customer's 3D printer. This new firmware would be mandatory to install and could have prevented the customer's printer from functioning until it had been. This effectively forced customers to agree to new Terms and Conditions surrounding the use of their printer, which they did not agree with upon purchase of the product.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Tyrer-Jones |first=Alex |date=20 Jan 2025 |title=Bambu Lab Responds to Backlash Over New Firmware Update |url=https://3dprintingindustry.com/news/bambu-lab-responds-to-backlash-over-new-firmware-update-235771/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250214090029/https://3dprintingindustry.com/news/bambu-lab-responds-to-backlash-over-new-firmware-update-235771/ |archive-date=14 Feb 2025 |access-date=1 May 2025 |website=3D Printing Industry}} </ref>

This new authentication mechanism resulted in numerous designed-for and compatible third-party products, both software and hardware, being made incompatible with the printers going forward. The chief products affected were (including but not limited to): Panda Touch, OrcaSlicer, any third-party product making use of the MQTT protocol. Soon after the updated software was released, users managed to [[Bambu private keys leaked less than 24 hours after announcement|extract necessary security keys]] from it to continue using their third-party products. Amendments have presently been made that would allow some or all of these products to work with workarounds or extra software or tools from Bambu embedded into these products.

Bambu Lab later responded to public outrage and controversy over these changes, stating that feedback has been provided and they would amend the firmware's new security measures with developer options that would unlock the use of the 3D printer without connecting to Bambu Lab's services.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Rossmann |first=Louis |date=19 Jan 2025 |title=Bambu Lab Firmware Update Forces Cloud Dependency & User Lock-In - AVOID THEIR 3D PRINTERS! |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIyaDD8onIE |url-status=live |access-date=1 May 2025 |website=[[YouTube]]}}</ref> However, the wording of these updates has been widely criticised by consumer rights conscious people as implying these were good-will gestures or extra granted rights, or that restriction of functionality was never on the roadmap.

Bambu Lab vocally spoke out against the public's reaction, calling many of the valid concerns "unfortunate misinformation", "false accusations" and "baseless allegations".<ref>{{Cite web |last=@SpaghettiMonster |date=20 Jan 2025 |title=Updates and Third-Party Integration with Bambu Connect |url=https://blog.bambulab.com/updates-and-third-party-integration-with-bambu-connect/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.ph/nnFDH |archive-date=20 January 2025 |access-date=1 May 2025 |website=Bambu Lab Blog}}</ref> It is notable that Bambu's recall of these accusations seems to fall on the creatively victimized interpretation side of the matter.

===Helio Additive===
In mid 2025, Bambu Lab added a new functionality in a form of a third party cloud service where you can send your design to get an thermal analysis, which can be used later to optimize the print adjusting the temperature (for [https://www.helioadditive.com/pricing paid membership]). Besides privacy concerns of sharing the designs with a Chinese startup, the functionality is restricted to an online-only model, with no offline simulation alternative, limiting potential open-source or community-driven innovation.

Projects:Archive everything

2026-01-03T21:32:10Z

Doomguy:

This project aims to get as many reference links as possible on the wiki switched over to archival links, instead of live links.

== The need to fight link rot ==
Everywhere on the internet, you get link rot - where linked pages either get taken offline, or changed, and the link is no longer useful for its original purpose. Link rot is a doubly serious issue for the Consumer Rights Wiki, as fairly substantial points of fact about companies or incidents may hang on our references, which will often point to a company's own website. The best available way to counter link rot is through archival, and this page serves as a hub for making sure every wiki article has its references archived.

Of particular importance are any links to central pieces of evidence used to support a claim of fact related to something a company has said or done, especially if it is on the website of a company, and can be taken down by them at any time. A reference supporting a more commonly available and frequently changing fact like 'Apple's market cap is $x' is not as important to archive as a company's FAQ, but it certainly won't hurt to do so.

Certain webpages are un-usable when archived, typically due to paywalls or reliance on video content (e.g. Youtube videos), and archival may not be appropriate for links leading to this kind of page.

== What you need to do ==
The best possible option is to archive a site in as many places as possible, but any archival link is much better than none at all.

The correct formatting for an archived citation will look something like this:

<code><nowiki>{{Cite web |author=BwE |title=BwE PS4 NOR Validator & BwE SerialReader Script by BetterWayElectronics |url=https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |website=PSHAX |date=27 Nov 2018 |access-date=12 Nov 2025 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250408175450/https://www.psxhax.com/threads/bwe-ps4-nor-validator-bwe-serialreader-script-by-betterwayelectronics.6139/ |archive-date=8 Apr 2025}}</nowiki></code>

The full list of possible fields can be found here: [[wikipedia:Template:Cite web]]. All you need to do is archive the relevant un-archived webpage (or find an archived copy closer to the date the reference initially accessed it), and then update the reference with the archival link.

This can either be done through the source editor (in which case citations will look like the text block above) or through the visual editor's citation tool (this can be found by clicking Insert -> More... -> Citation, or pressing crtl+shift+k).

2021 WhatsApp privacy policy updates

2026-01-03T21:30:26Z

Doomguy: Archived Links on Archive.Today

In January 2021, WhatsApp announced an update to its privacy policy, set to take effect on February 8, 2021 (later delayed).<ref>{{Cite news |last=Taylor |first=Lenore |date=14 May 2021 |title=WhatsApp to force users to accept changes to terms of service |url=https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/may/14/whatsapp-to-force-users-to-accept-changes-to-terms-of-service |archive-url=https://archive.ph/oEXMC |archive-date=15 May 2021 |access-date=3 January 2026 |work=The Guardian}}</ref> Key changes to the policy included:

*Clarifying how WhatsApp processes user data.
*Detailing how WhatsApp works with businesses, including the use of WhatsApp Business accounts and how data from these interactions might be shared with Facebook.
*While WhatsApp had shared some data with Facebook since its acquisition in 2014, the update provided more explicit details about the types of data shared and the purpose, particularly concerning business communications.The announcement triggered widespread concern and confusion among users. Many users expressed discomfort with the prospect of more of their data being shared with Facebook, citing concerns about privacy and the potential for misuse of personal information. There was also frustration with the policy update requiring users to accept the new terms to continue using WhatsApp, leaving many feeling they had no real choice.

Initial reports and social media discussions led to some misinformation, with some users incorrectly believing WhatsApp would be able to read their private messages.

The privacy policy update led to a significant surge in downloads and usage of alternative messaging platforms.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Nicas |first=Jack |last2=Isaac |first2=Mike |last3=Frenkel |first3=Sheera |date=13 Jan 2021 |title=Millions Flock to Telegram and Signal as Fears Grow Over Big Tech |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/13/technology/telegram-signal-apps-big-tech.html |archive-url=https://archive.ph/iIOmC |archive-date=14 January 2021 |access-date=3 January 2026 |work=The New York Times}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Vengattil |first=Munsif |last2=Mathews |first2=Eva |date=13 Jan 2021 |title=Signal sees "unprecedented" growth after WhatsApp controversy |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/technology/signal-sees-unprecedented-growth-after-whatsapp-controversy-idUSKBN29I279/ |archive-url=https://archive.ph/ockvZ |archive-date=3 January 2026 |access-date=3 January 2026 |work=Reuters}}</ref>

==Response==
Faced with widespread backlash and user migration, WhatsApp issued blog posts, FAQs, and social media statements to clarify the privacy policy update, emphasising that personal messages remained end-to-end encrypted and that the changes primarily related to business interactions. WhatsApp then announced a delay in the implementation of the new policy, pushing the deadline from February 8 to May 15, 2021. This was intended to allow more time to address user concerns and provide further explanations.
While the initial user exodus was significant, WhatsApp remains one of the most popular messaging applications globally.
