It’s always a great thing when companies break the rules they set for themselves. But hey, who are we to judge? We’re all hypocrites in our own way :). On the plus side, I guess this means we can talk about the Unifi Dream Machine Pro SE before it comes out of EA. Or at least I hope so, because […]

I try very hard to resist piling on when a tech company makes a tone-deaf call, but this time I simply can’t. Seriously Amazon, WTF?
