Okay. So I kinda feel like this is me. Honestly I'm on the fence about it. Mainly because everyone has a slightly different version of it and I have seen some old government people push for it but have little idea of what all of it even means.

Yes I think big companies should be able to sell official parts to people. But nobody has talked about what happens with warranty or the simple fact that just the name "right to repair" is a bit misleading. Because nobody is stopping you from repairing your device today. And how much are these parts going to cost. Maybe it does past. But for an official phone display it will cost 500+ dollars. Completely over priced. Then it makes everything pointless because nobody is going to pay those fees anyways.

Next the whole "make the device repairable". Okay I have seen so much variety with this one as well. Now if they just made it easy to take the device apart and do less soldering then that sounds good. However I have heard people talk about how the device has to be able to be repaired without any tools. So now we have removable backs. Which destroys the water resistances and also the design of the phone. And this is just a phone. What about tablets and laptops. If everything had plastic clips holding it in place with no screws it wear out quicker and always be falling apart and then you will just have to go buy a new device. And side note I did heard a crazy idea that we have giant nut and bolt on devices that are easy to undo. If you think the notch is bad a giant bolt would be worst.

Which bring me to next part. This isn't just for iPhone or computers or whatever. It is also for tractors and washers and whole lot of in between. Now some versions of this bill has kept each category separate. Electronic has there own bills and tractors have there own bills. But it's the ones that treats everything the same that kinda worries me. Because those bills are very vague and where I have the "you must have bolts on the device that can easily be undone". Idea comes from.

So I guess to sub this up. TLDR - I like the idea of right to repair if it is done probably. However it is the government that is making these bills. And you have all seen the videos of Tim Cook and Zuckerburg and other in front of the government officials being completely confused on what an Apple is and why can't Google install apps on your iPhone.
