        How much more could it possibly cost to just use the good cameras? They basically put cameras on everything that would put the digital camera I had when I was 20 to shame.

      You can get around stuff like that if the product is “fundamentally altered” in the USA. So say you’re building phones. The parts could all be made across the world, but if they’re assembled here, there is some work around language. The most common of course is “assembled in the USA”

      Which is interesting because the idea of a free phone from the government came during the Reagan administration if I recall correctly

        Yep. I think the difference was that Obama updated it to be a cellular phone instead of a landline.

          I got one sent to me in the mail completely unsolicited. When I tried to turn off the location, it wouldn’t let me so I stopped using it.
