Consumer impact summary
In an interview with YouTuber Salem Techsperts, actnano CEO Taymur Ahmad explains that ANG is a proven technology currently in use under extreme conditions such as electric vehicles, but laptop manufacturers reject the use of nanoGUARD since 20% of their sales comes from consumers who blame themselves for their broken devices after spilling liquid on them. Thus it is against their financial interest to spend one extra dollar per device to waterproof their PCBAs during manufacturing.[2]
