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?
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.
I’m glad for the EU, California, and other places that are big enough to force this sort of stuff nationally or globally.
Every so often the phrase “where California goes the nation follows” comes true. I had a feeling about this one, but not so soon nor decisively.

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.
