-    sold a music streaming device but they no longer support it</a>. Due to
-    its proprietary nature, it can no longer be updated or even used. Users
-    requested Spotify to make the software that runs on the device libre,
-    and Spotify refused, so these devices are now e-waste. Spotify is
-    now offering refunds to save the purchasers from
-    losing money on these products, but this wouldn't prevent the products
-    from being e-waste, and wouldn't save users from being jerked around by
-    Spotify. This is an example of how software that is not free controls
-    the user instead of the user controlling the software. It is also an
-    important lesson for us to insist the software in a device be libre
-    before we buy it.</p>
