Literally, over a year of repeatedly warning their users.
As someone who once had a job that required getting people to follow instructions and warnings, I am very frustrated on Alby’s behalf.
Follow directions?!?!?! Who ever heard of such useless activity? Engineers and coders are kind of noted for not following directions until they are absolutely stuck and cannot move without a hint. I’ve known too many engineers and coders to see them reading manuals, directions or even just hints. Mostly they revert to Google or now AI.

To say nothing of being really bad translations of the original language. Once-upon-a-time, I helped translate instructions for a kidney dialysis machine. It would have been horrible to send the directions out the way they were originally translated.

Nobody follows directions. That's why trying to get them to sucks.

They're more likely to read, understand, and then disregard because they think they're smarter than everyone else.

It is usually in the translation. Technical directions are a tad on the difficult side to translate.
I'm not even saying they're wrong for doing so.
It sucks extremely badly if you need to get one very specific direction where the device has a lot of mods or versions. Nearly impossible, even with serial numbers and item numbers.
