The anti repair argument is pure insanity there would be no safety risk if the bloody manufacturer made it easy to remove the battery or any other component that can cause risk

[saugusandsausages]

Nice seeing you as a young lad! Thanks for all your advocacy around these right to repair issues.

[lazer]

We need more companies like framework making repairable devices

[notbuffy]

I'm also an electronic repair guy and anti repair sucks because repairing is the way we make money and I truly want to help the environment

[BrianGlaze]

There is no logical reasoning to oppose right to repair. Thanks for calling this out.

Bruh "just because someone can steal my keys and make a copy therefore nobody should be allowed to cut keys, so should i just demolish my whole house?" 💀

[ngpaul]

The world needs more people like you to advocate for us (helpless consumers). Thank you!

[FoxBlocksHere]

Seeing that video of you doing repairs as a child made me smile! It's nice to see that you've always had an interest in repairing, even at that young of an age!

[timetriad]

You hit the nail on the head…. Anti-repair is driven by greed and corruption.

I hope EU will do something, just like with the USB-C

I still have my cheap tablet for movies, been replacing the battery everytime it needs replacing. Now I modded it with two massive batteries and now last double than stock lol.

Funny...
They make an argument for anti-repair because someone could have fixed your phone with stolen parts...
Well, maybe if the manufacturer sold their replacement parts for what they were actually worth it wouldn't be profitable to "sell stolen parts".
It just feels like the AirPods solution to a problem of a headphone jack removed 10 minutes prior... A pricy solution to a stupid issue...

It's so strange when people internalize corporate gaslighting.

[tyzone]

The fact that this video is needed is pure insanity

Been with you 100% since day one Hugh. I've been into phone customisation since the Galaxy s4 and iPhone 4s. Making something your own once you've bought it is done EVERYWHERE. You don't buy a house and leave it exactly as it is, no, you add to it, to make it feel better for you or fit a certain aesthetic you have in mind.

Greed is the only thing these manufacturers know anymore, and that passes down to customers as they become so used to just buying another product once even the smallest thing happens to their current device. No wonder the planet is just a huge landfill now, overflowing with eWaste. If money can be made, the world will always suffer.

In a time of diminishing natural resources it seems stupid to disallow anyone to access repair rather than new purchase; but then Corporate execs only concern is their annual bonus

[thelightbrigadef]

Ain't no surprise cause, financial issues to kept the new project requires a lot of money for doing it every 1 year cause user can use almost 3 years before any sign of worn out part repair begin to take effects.

[PSPCDJ]

All those anti-repair people should be publicly shamed.

[kingvinoda]

This video should be a presentation to congress

[freemansfreedom]

4:30 To which I go a step further: If that was the issue, let your users go to your website, and put a claim to disable that phone's parts when it is actually needed by showing proof of purchase. Then push an update to all your models with the blacklist so those parts stop working for repairs. They sure could considering they have no qualms of sending telemetry back, so a few kb of data for a blacklist should not be a big deal. You achieve the same, without killing reparability. But that ain't the goal, as we all know by now.
