They can't do that. Maybe they can launch new versions later where they lock it down, but then we will just use something else.

The latter is what this discussion is about. Will future Arduino released things still be usable for our means, or do we need to ditch them.
Yep, it's fine to not consider future versions when you do say hobby projects, but I worked on a commercial Arduino based project that's supposed to run on top of poles on solar. For that I very much care if they plan to make it cloud dependent... and I don't assume sanity on part of management.

Me too.
What product?
Essentially a TCP/IP based pager for the event industry.
Mine is even more boring - and on hold - but it’s reading data from some sensors and sends it over NB-IoT to a server.

Due to the Qualcomm issue, or something else? I'm working for a small company, so we will likely just ignore it.
No no. Customer got acquired the 32th time (been working for them for a long time occasionally) and they’re “reevaluating the ongoing projects.”
