Damage to American small (and medium) businesses. Not the megacorps.
The dude with the mall kiosk selling phone cases and chargers? He's getting reamed by this, and will likely go out of business, because he brings all his stock in from China in small shipments that have always fallen under the de minimis exemption (which is now toast). He can't compete with having to pay five times as much for shipping and tariffs all of a sudden.
The independent phone-and-laptop repair place? He and his 3 techs are probably twiddling their thumbs a lot soon. Most of the parts they buy to fix your broken screen or charge port come in just like the mall kiosk dude's. A replacement screen that used to cost him $30 plus $5 shipping now suddenly costs $30 plus $15 tariffs plus $20 shipping-and-tariff-collection-and-remittance-and-brokerage-clearance charges. He'll have to double what he charges to replace that screen in your Samsung.
Amazon? Walmart? Best Buy? All the other corporate behemoths? They're not importing in dribs and drabs by post. It won't affect them much at all, except they'll probably increase prices a bit to cover the extra paperwork to clear their shipments at the border, plus a lot more to cover the tariffs.
(Yes, you already knew this. I just wanted to say it.)

Dear friends of 11's, had a sausage, tea and piece of #choccy,
That should give me the #strength to deal with MicroShaft #Copilot AI scheming. [spoiler alert: you need more than a sausage]
Basically this #Artificial #Insanity only #installs on a WinDows Index machination, up to date iPad, or a phone not running #Firefox focus or Firefox ... oh MS #Mega-corp has already put a #cookie or similar on my Debian powered, long-term release hardware, WITHOUT a permit, permission or by your leave. 😱
Typical. I feel dirty. Virused. Abused. Not safe in my own cyber-home. 🦠 #Youtoo?
Well I was warned. But as a #wer-lobster, I will enter #warm #waters and be boiled into pseudo-screaming. Here are my claws. Now I am a #crawfish with just #feelers...
Normal #scheduling is now resumed :blobcatthx:
