Maybe all *packaging* should be only one type of plastic to simplify recycling, there should be an international specification to govern this, I personally advocate for biodegradable, but any improvement is welcome

I still would not buy a Samsung

will this include HEMP derived paper?

The Latest: UK to scrap application fee for EU citizensLONDON (AP) — The Latest on Britain's exit from the European Union (all times local): 3:50 p.m. Prime Minister Theresa May says Britain is scrapping a fee it was due to charge European Union citizens applying to settle permanently in the U.K. after Brexit. After Britain leaves the EU, citizens of the bloc will no longer have the automatic right to live in Britain. The government says everyone already here can stay, and has set up an online registration process with a fee of 65 pounds ($84) for adults. May says that after hearing the concerns of some of the 3 million EU nationals in Britain, she was scrapping the fee. She made the announcement to the House of Commons as part of moves to try to overcome opposition to the government's divorce deal with the EU. Where is this story? Doesn’t this essentially guarantee a hard Brexit? I find this last-minute chaos interesting. Seems like they forgot that March 2019 was the deadline.
