Aside from something bad like this security hole, I can't understand the hate, it's pretty obvious the R1 was a fun novelty, a gimmick.
Anyone with a basic understanding of tech, would understand you're not going to get Apple level breakthrough engineering from a start-up and at that price point.
I feel this got swept up in the wave of hatred for the Humane AI Pin (again very obvious what it'd be). Humane's biggest fault was that they marketed it as being at Apple level quality, an impossible goal they set for themselves.
