Right, it’s using a metaphor, drawing a link between the classic definition of bricking and an overall pattern of otherwise selling a product that becomes non useful. Implying that this outcome is fundamental and spans specific vehicles for getting there.

I wasn’t clear but I meant that their build quality has gone down significantly since the 90s when they developed a good reputation and market share. A single click starts to randomly register as a double click over time.

They’re also bricking the vertical mouse I got in 2022 because apparently it’s too much to ask to expect a $75 mouse to work for 4 years.
