Everyone's copying from the fruit store. They see "unrepairable phones made them a trillion dollar company, let's do the same!". All they have to do is market it like it was made by the second coming of Christ and people will love it. Sprinkle on some bullshit like "it's for your safety, stealing it is worth less now" and it'll be a hit.
