An Ohio Republican says his proposed law would require manufacturers to share/sell their parts and schematics with consumers and small repair shops.
Ohioans assume that the electronics, tractors and even wheelchairs they buy can be repaired, but that's increasingly not the case.
And things like product designs that complicate or prevent repair, unavailability of parts, software locks and policies that steer people toward the manufacturer for repairs can hurt consumers. But the FTC disagreed, saying in its report that"there is scant evidence to support manufacturers’ justifications for repair restrictions."
"The Apple tools available to customers on the Self Service Repair Store are the same as used by Apple’s repair network," according to a company press release."They are custom designed to help provide the best repairs for Apple products."
