unfortunately i don’t know any country that considers teeth and eyes to be part of the body, everyone considers them an optional luxury you have to pay for.
Also that one case where a casino was hacked though a fish tank thermometer.

Try places in mainland Europe. I’ve had three of my teeth fixed for free (paid through taxes) by an extremely skilled dentist.

the phones should be “dumb” too. smartphones were an egregious mistake.
Meh, I like having internet on my phone.
Well, at least we get unlockable bootloaders (for now).
