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.

    I got a cheap dash cam off Temu a few years ago. I’m sure I don’t have to explain beyond that.

    Yes. I’m an idiot. I know. I’ve always known.

      So just out of curiosity, did the dash cam not work for dash cam purposes?

      As in, did you end up getting into an accident and have no usable footage?

      Or was it just a piece of shit that didn’t work?

        My guess is the quality is so bad they can’t see shit or it overheats from the sun very easily and shuts down
