I see what you did there.
Their biggest problem is not the money but the people that have to build the tanks, if you kill many men in a war you will have less people that can produce goods especially in the steel industy where most of the people working there will be men that build the tanks for your war.
Seems like this will be just the beginning of fines that X/Twitter can collect.
I am not a legal experte, but in the EU you might be able to sue the now.
Even if this is true, most people who sell their old Phone include the charging brick. Also there is a Video on Youtube that describes the problem with not including a charging brick, and the conclusion is that it created more waste and CO2 then it would if they include one with the device.
Also for most Android phones you will need a new one because you will want to use the New fast charging that comes with your new device. I don’t know if Apple Providers something similar.
You might play it again, depending on the updates it recieves.
