Eli5 me pls. The story from the article is based in the land of the free and fake materialism. Does that mean these manufacture cant do that in the rest of the world yet? Or is it exclusively the go to country for testing out ways to further exploit money out of... well, one of the significantly poorest (financial inequality) poputional in the world (cost of living credit debt).
