The mentioning of Valetudo should be more at the top to make people aware of the existing alternatives.

My aged Roborock S5 suddenly stopped working a year ago and only cleaned a very small segment making it effectively useless. Since I knew that data is exchanged with the manufacturer I suspected them to actively prevent the device from working properly to make me buy a new one. Thanks to Valetudo the device is working back again just fine. Meaning there never was a hardware (or software) failure, but a remote issue.

Yup. Probably some of you guys remember a TV series with the plot of women being used as birth machines due to some global crises. At that time it was just a plot of a TV series. Today, I’m not sure about that anymore.
