It’s REALLY annoying when a gadget becomes waste because of software!

The folks at U.S. PIRG have started a list of gadgets that were sent to landfills before their time. Lucas Gutterman of U.S. PIRG sat down with me to chat about the enormous scale of the problem, and ways consumers can get more bang for their gadget buck!

• eWaste Graveyard https://pirg.org/edfund/resources/electronic-waste-graveyard/
• U.S. PIRG official site https://pirg.org/
• PIRG Chromebook support campaign https://pirg.org/articles/why-google-announced-chromebooks-will-last-for-10-years/
