What are the worst tech purchases you or your family have ever made?

I watched a video recently and wanted to know what other have bought over the years.

    I bought the Blackberry KeyOne AND the KeyTwo LE.

    Those were great except for the screens falling out: my worst purchase was a six hundred dollar android tablet for when I was going to be recovering from a big surgery. I returned it. wtf are tablets even for? It was basically a shitty computer that couldn’t do anything.

      As the owner of a proper Linux tablet, tablets are for combining with keyboards for use as small laptops.

      They’re also good for watching videos during taxi, takeoff, and landing during which laptop use is forbidden.
