What are the worst tech purchases you or your family have ever made?

I watched a video recently and wanted to know what other have bought over the years.

    Raycons. Got suckered by the YouTubers. They were garbage right out of the box. They could barely maintain a connection with each other, and the sound quality was awful.

      Yeah, general rule of thumb is to avoid anything being peddled by YouTubers. It’s a good sign that the company is putting a ton of money into trendy marketing instead of R&D or product quality.
