@iFixit we probably won't make business with Bosh anytime soon, regarding this kind of practice (out of other stuff)
with @Shifti_SC in our R&D, open software and hardware is more and more a "requirement" than a incentive

@iFixit Additionally, even when we do not suggest that Bosch might abuse their powers (which they are still likely to do at some point), they can just break repairability of your bike out of pure indifference at some point when they shut down the pairing server infrastructure. When *they* say your bike components are EOL, your whole bike becomes EOL when even used parts cease to be usable for repair.
( @pluralistic of course knows this )
