I wonder whether RH plan to fight back FUD they've brought upon by their
December announcement.
Personally, I found this "no-cost" promise lacking substantial details.
If RH doesn't verify everyone requesting developer subscription (forcing
to prove identity), the 16 installations limit is easily circumvented by
multiple registrations.
If they *do* request identity verification (i.e. copy of ID, phone,
email, physical address... etc etc, up to last will in favor of RH),
then I am even more uneasy having voluntarily provided them with
personal data which are treasure for any marketing purpose they could
imagine.
Also, I can still expect they will again change their mind close to
2021's end. In short, I have hard time trusting RH in such a situation.
JMNSHO.
