Cause of death: the autopsy
Companion apps chart in 5-7 countries, but companion-chatbot rules for minors (California's 2025 law is the example) and 17+ moderation sink it. The report itself says to check the law's exact scope before reusing this reason.
The numbers
None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.
Could rise again if
The report left no way back.
