	===Platform death===		===Platform death===
	A potential end-scenario for enshittified platforms is death, usually caused by a large enough exodus of users and business partners, and a general loss of trust. A platform may not truly "die" per se, but it can completely lose the identity that made it successful in the first place - and might not ever regain it. An ongoing example is [[X Corp\|Twitter]] post Elon Musk's takeover. Under its new ownership and branding, the platform lost swathes of its userbase and advertisers to alternative platforms (such as Bluesky after its policy shifts proved widely unpopular.		A potential end-scenario for enshittified platforms is death, usually caused by a large enough exodus of users and business partners, and a general loss of trust.

An ongoing example is [[X Corp\|Twitter]] post Elon Musk's takeover. Under its new ownership and branding, the platform lost swathes of its userbase and advertisers to alternative platforms (such as Bluesky after its policy shifts proved widely unpopular).

	However, the death of an enshittified platform is not a particularly positive outcome. It uproots a long-established userbase and can greatly disrupt their activities. There is also the chance that alternative platforms lack feature parity with the old platform or that they might not be able to support the massive influx of new users, at least for some time. At worst, data loss could be involved, meaning years' worth of information - if not archived beforehand - could potentially be lost if a platform shuts down in some capacity.

"Me: Thank you very much for the information, Sourabh. Dead Space 2 is not an online service—even though it is a product license purchased via Steam—as per EU consumer laws. I take issue with the fact that, for a purchased product,
I am being referred to a community forum post, especially since activation limits can be exhausted simply by using the same computer if TPM is enabled or if hardware components are swapped out. I understand that this is not your fault; however, I would like to have my ticket escalated further, as being denied access to a legally purchased product borders on theft. Thank you.

Support: I hear you, and I completely understand your frustration. It is a difficult situation where you legally purchased a license, yet DRM (SecuROM) effectively locks you out of your own game—solely due to hardware changes or system updates like TPM.
I truly want to help you get back into the cockpit, but I
must be honest regarding our current system limitations.
Since Dead Space 2 has been officially retired (sunsetted),
our modern support tools simply no longer support these older games. The legacy systems required to manually "refresh" or
"reset" these specific SecuROM activation slots are no longer active or accessible to our support teams—including my supervisors. I hope you understand the limitations we are facing!

Me: Thank you, Sourabh; I know that this isn't your fault.
However, these limitations originated on EA's end and therefore
represent a deliberate decision. I may look into taking legal action if necessary. Nevertheless, I wish you a pleasant
rest of your day. Best regards.

Support: Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
I hope you are able to find a solution for this on the community forums. It was a pleasure speaking with you today!"

While I wish I could resolve this error for you, we are unable to provide assistance with in-game issues or licensing problems for titles that have reached their end-of-life date. For older titles like this one,
I recommend searching the EA Forums or the game's official website
for community-led workarounds that
might help you bypass the SecuROM limit.
https://forums.ea.com/category
Although official support for Dead Space 2 has been discontinued,
you can find some common troubleshooting steps from the community here—
methods that players have used to resolve or
bypass the "Activation limit reached" error.
If you still have access to an old computer on which the
game was previously installed, you can try to reclaim an activation
"slot." — Navigate to the game's local files
within your Steam library. — Look for an icon labeled
"Activation" (it often looks like an eye). — Double-click it and
select the option to deactivate the key on that specific PC.

Aside from that, is there anything else
I can help you with today? Just let me know.

The chat will close in 1 minute. Type something to keep the connection active. If the connection is lost, you can restart the chat, and your case details will be forwarded to a new agent
on our support team.

	The Spirit Blossom Morgana skin, released by Riot Games on June 25th, 2025, is part of the developer's new "Exalted" skin tier, marketed as ultra-premium digital content for the game League of Legends. The skin costs approximately 250€ and is acquired via a randomized loot-box system. However, serious concerns have been raised regarding whether the product meets the quality and feature standards Riot Games has advertised, prompting a formal complaint to the European Commission and subsequent actions involving the European Consumer Centre (ECC) Austria.

''[[wikipedia:Elon Musk|Elon Reeve Musk]]'' was born June 28, 1971, and raised in Pretoria, South Africa.

==Professional background==
After earning his bachelor's degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1997, Musk moved to California to found {{Wplink|Zip2}} in 1995. After Zip2's sale in 1999, he co-founded {{Wplink|X.com (bank)|X.com}}, an online payments site that later merged to form [[PayPal]], which was later acquired by [[eBay]] in 2002. He is listed as CEO and product architect of [[Tesla]], founder, CEO and chief engineer of {{Wplink|SpaceX}}, founder and CEO of [[xAI]], founder and CTO of [[X Corp|X corp.]], a co-founder of {{Wplink|Neuralink}}, {{Wplink|The Boring Company|the Boring Company}}, [[OpenAI]], Zip2, and X.com (part of PayPal), and president of the {{Wplink|Musk Foundation}}.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2026-05-12 |title=Elon Musk |url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20260512033801/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk |archive-date=2026-05-12 |access-date=2026-05-12 |website=Wikipedia}}</ref>

==Stance on consumer rights==

In June, as reported by the ''Financial Times'', Trump Mobile utilized the Liberty Mobile network.<ref name="MWL" /> However, the Liberty Mobile website does not mention the network holding 5G capabilities that the Trump Mobile website claims, despite both websites being updated in 2025. In addition, this conflicts with Trump Mobile's claims that the service "will offer 5G service through all three major cellular carriers"<ref name="TTO B" />, as Liberty Mobile is a T-Mobile-based MVNO.

'''Archive.today has been deprecated.''' This is because the owner weaponised their site's visitors to {{Wplink\|Denial-of-service attack#Distributed DoS\|DDOS}} a blogger for bizarre internet argument reasons, calling into question the reliability of the maintainer and site, and the ethics of using it. The owner was also found to have tampered with archive pages, which hurts a wiki's ability to rely on the site as an archive for verifying and supporting the claims made in articles.
