*We now estimate 1.7 billion pounds of electronic waste has been created
by expired software and canceled cloud services since 2014.* The largest
contributer by far was the expiration of Windows 10 resulting in up to
1.6 billion pounds of electronic waste from PCs that can’t upgrade to
Windows 11.
For the planet, this lack of support results in a death by a thousand
server support cuts. This e-waste adds up. At the very least we need
lifetime transparency for tech
