We need laws that make this illegal. I get it that they don’t want to support it for whatever reason, but electronic waste is already a big problem and you can’t convince me everyone is recycling their used electronics.

Amazon did this with their cloud security cameras as well.

Spotify did it with their "Car thing"

It's common and I agree, should be illegal.

Good luck. Sounds similar to the problem that the movement Stop Killing Games is trying to solve as well, which I doubt will get anywhere.
