Apple will honor California's 'right to repair' rules nationwide
(www.engadget.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I am out of the loop on this one. I am probably wrong, but......Wasn't the bill nullified by the fact apple has the sole right to supply the replacement parts? Or does the bill work as intended where replacement parts can be sourced elsewhere as well as documentation being made available?
I have no idea, but I'm grateful for a step in the right direction. It feels like there haven't been many of those in recent times.
My point was that it may have been made useless. I seem to remember Louis Rossman complaining about it, but I have no idea over which issue. There is no point in having a right to repair act if it can still be abused in some way shape or form by large manufacturers.
I think the problem with this one was that manufacturers can hold all the cards on the cost of buying replacement parts. This would open up the issue of people being gouged. I was hoping that someone could give me more accurate information on the issue.
