Right to Repair/Ownership

8 readers

Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde "oem" parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.

Rules:

  1. Keep posts on topic.
  2. Don’t make posts with link/s to paywalled articles as their main focus.
  3. No posts linking to reddit posts.
  4. Titles must include information on how old the source is in this format dd.mm.yyyy (ex. 24.06.2023).
  5. Please be respectful to each other.

This is going to be a long term effort from my side to build a library of resources on the topic of right to repair/ownership to make it easier for people to learn about the topic. Of course this sub is not Louis Rosmann circlejerk, it's just that he shared a lot of great videos/views on the topic of right to repair/ownership. I also don't want him to be the face of this movement (and he doesn't want that too) I just decided to start building the library starting from him and that's all. You can help me make this community grow by sharing the resources on the topic yourself to speed up the process of building the library. Please avoid sharing stuff from Louis Rosmann because no matter what you share it's guaranteed that I will find it myself later and it will result in a duplicate post because as of now I don't have a way of tracking what's in the library and what's not. Hopefully I find a scalable way to organise my workflow soon enough.

Thanks for taking this up, Louis really took right to repair to the masses.
