minus-squarerekabis@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up35arrow-down2·16 hours agoDamn, that’s promotional material that SanDisk would probably not want to have.
minus-squareours@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·5 hours agoNah, more like great promo material for the camera that survived the whole mess mostly intact. Too bad they dropped the ball by not having the decryption keys for the actual video on the card.

minus-squareEcho Dot@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up20arrow-down2·13 hours agoWhy? It wasn’t there submersible, their product wasn’t responsible for its destruction and frankly there is very little in the way of public sympathy. The product is not even rated as waterproof and yet it’s survived months at the bottom of the ocean after having survived a destructive implosion. That’s hella marketing.
minus-squaredev_null@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·11 hours agoThe marketing is more for the submersible camera that survived, just like it was designed to do, the SD card was just inside the camera and no water even touched it. I don’t think the SD card should be getting any credit.
minus-squareEcho Dot@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·10 hours agoYeah I know but marketing is marketing. It doesn’t really have to make any sense. If the Xbox controller had survived I’m sure Microsoft would have made big of that even though it’s basically irrelevant to the product.
