It's that time of the year again when we celebrate the biggest tech fails of the past 12 months. Celebrate? It's an odd choice of word, maybe, but let's face it, there's a certain amount of schadenfreude to be gleaned in looking back and reliving the most resounding flops that we've been forced to endure during 2025.
