To me that reads similarly to age restricted websites asking you to verify your age before accessing it, where you just input a date that says you’re old enough and then you’re set. I’ve been 99 years old for the last decade. Given what they’re trying to do, I wouldn’t be surprised if they use more extensive verification measures, but I haven’t read into that yet. If it’s just an age/DOB input, then it’s not really outlawing anything.
Disagree, and I think you’re stupid for putting people down for using these. The data harvesting is the big issue, but let’s ignore that for a second.
You’re right that they don’t do a great job at getting everything, but if you use it to maintain a level of cleanliness alongside vacuuming then that shortcoming doesn’t really matter much. Instead of vacuuming 10 minutes every single day, you could do it once a week and have the robot do it between vacuums. If somebody travels for work and is away from home regularly then using these things is actually a good fit.
But go off, friend. Keep flexing that you’re superior for doing a mundane task for 10 minutes every day. Everybody else is stupid except for you.
