    Short of a class action, no one can afford to take them to court and they know it. Bullies be bullying.

      If you stole a phone from a Google office, they would call the police and you go to jail. If Google steals your phone, you can try to sue them. The system working as intented, keeping us lowly plebs in our place.

      Small claims court? At least if you lose the case you’ll know it ended up costing them 10x what the phone cost you.

      Though forced arbitration is probably in there somewhere

        Assuming they don’t have a forced arbitration clause, you’d probably win in small claims court because it’d cost them a ton of money to send a lawyer there to argue the case over a ~$1,000 phone.
