'As the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show winds down, it's once again time for the
Worst in Show Awards, an enumeration of ill-conceived tech products as
determined by various technology advocates.

The Worst in Show panelists each focused on different criteria – privacy,
environmental impact, security, repairability, "Who asked for this?" and
community choice – that reflected poorly on product makers. Panel moderator
Kyle Wiens, co-founder of repair forum iFixit, said, the product selected
"can't be just, you know, moderately bad. It has to be terribly, awfully bad."

And this year's CES vendors delivered.'
