Sonos has been criticized for activities that harm consumers such as stripping privacy protection with no ability to opt out, remotely bricking devices that are sold to be traded-in (creating e-waste), updating older hardware into bricks, and demanding app download setup and multi-speaker capability. Such activities have invoked the concern of privacy, sustainability, and forced obsolescence. | |||
