Analog and embedded processing chips sold to manufacturers — plus the graphing calculators a generation of American students were required to buy at prices sustained by curriculum and exam-board requirements rather than by competition. That calculator market is a genuine consumer-cost story: a decades-old product held at a high price because school systems mandate it, which is a small but perfect example of captive-market pricing.

Terms
Arbitration
Not independently confirmed this pass — standard binding arbitration + class action waiver expected.
Data sharing
Not independently confirmed this pass with a specific named consumer-facing data-privacy lawsuit or breach; most semiconductor/component manufacturers sell primarily to OTHER BUSINESSES (device makers, cloud providers) rather than directly to consumers, meaning individual exposure is typically indirect (as a user of a device containing this company's chips) rather than through a direct account relationship — recommend checking specifically for any consumer-facing software/account products this company operates (e.g., driver-download portals, developer accounts).
Fees and billing
