LEDs on electronics need either a maximum brightness or an adjustable brightness. I have taken to covering the LEDs on charger bricks with Sharpie/tape (often multiple layers of tape) to dampen the brightness because I cannot function with these damn things at night.
Now if we could just teach this to the general population. The number of times that I’ve gotten yelled at to “get off the road and use the sidewalk” has me prepared to make a wearable “share the road” sign.
