      I think 'freedom' is a bit hyperbolic. It's about anti-consumer practices and trying to end them. Businesses would figure out far too late being anti-consumer hurts their own businesses. You can see EA struggling right now how to make a smaller and smaller base of customers spend more and more money...Eventually that pile of big spenders will be too small to fund their business and these anti-repair practices do the same thing...eventually less and less people will be able to afford upgrades or 'certified repairs' and simply stop buying the product.

      when the product is yours, it's yours period. they don't rent it out unless you sign a lease/rental agreement.
      however, what is being argued is that most oems say that you are not allowed to have that product repaired anywhere else except the manufacturer. then on top of that intentionally limit the repair parts that evenually forces you to buy a new device. or do something like apple did and saying if we send this part, it will be double damn near tripple the price of the device.

      I have to disagree. Louis is a great speaker, even in his first videos and has only gotten better since then through practice, but many people like myself do not have this practice or even real clarity of thought while speaking openly.
      You can be intelligent with a vast amount of knowledge in the subject you're attempting to represent, practice your speech many times, and you still end up with pauses, mispronunciations, and other defects in your presentation that unfortunately reflect poorly on your side of the discussion.
      So to that end, I have to say it is the opposite. You can never really know who is "speaking from the heart" when it comes to public speaking, you can only find out who is good at it.

    what pisses me off is when O.E.M.s have repair centers, and then they absolutely refuse to repair. even if you make 500k a year, they say no,. REALLY? If someone is willing to shell out the money for an "out-of-warranty" product AND replaceable parts are available TAKE THE F----G MONEY! Then they say "you are better off buying a new device" . That quote right there, atleast 70 percent of customers walk out and then don't purchase another product from that company.
    The opposition representatives: They don't want things to be open because they are too dangerous? DUDE hello that is why by law you have to put warning labels! Point 2: Majority of electronics have capacitors in each device. We are taught never to mess with them period. But if the overall device is that dangerous, it wouldn't be available to the general public!!! Lastly, if they are so afraid with copyright infringement, then require all repair individuals to not discuss them and to issue very severe penalties PERIOD.

    10:47 There's the shill line again. "This Bill is a solution in search of a problem".
    If there's no problem, then it shouldn't affect you and those you represent.
    I wonder how many of the 80% of those "19,000 repair options" (which I presume is corporate drivel for means repairers) are "Authorised" in that they, by way of contract provisions, may only carry out specified repairs in a specified manner i.e. board replacement at a prohibitive cost where a board could viably be fixed at component level for much less. I would suggest approximately... ALL OF THEM.
    Also, no body is going to let an unlicenced gas fitter work on their appliances where the issue is related to gas. And the same goes to main electricity. That's also already regulated - the companies you represent don't regulate those activities.

      Get other people to find what we do interesting, worthwhile, useful, and fun.
      If you help someone fix something when they need data they haven't backed up - you won someone over.
      If you show someone how much fun it is to figure something out and get it to boot, or fan spin on their own - you won them over.
      If you show someone how to help someone ELSE fix something or save money, you won them over twice over.
      Don't be an angry mob. Be a happy repair mob. It's awesome. :)

    You did us all proud Louis. Speaking is tricky especially to a crowd like this so to articulate the issues, respond in a real world human level (book in Latin translated to English) was so appropriate.
    I teach electrical topics for safety and skills. I find the model of speaking you used is so effective as you must connect with your listeners immediately. You did not have and hour or two to establish relationship, you had to bring them on board in literally minutes which you very successfully did. I noticed, as others mentioned in comments, how interested some of the panel members were.
    Betcha a dollar at least one of them had dropped their phone in a potty, or the sink or cracked their screen and had the misery of barriers to data recovery and repair of phones and other devices you want to see eliminated! They have a wallet and are consumers too! Reach them where they live and connect! The best way to connect and get empathy for our cause is to touch people in that area where they too have felt the sting of crazy ridiculous repair costs or simply no repair offered at all!!
    Bravo keep up the fight we are with you. Right to repair is like Pandora out of the box , no going back, never give up never surrender!

    @ ~28:00 not disclosing the safety lock information would be tantamount to inviting a lawsuit should they hide that info from the general populace. What if the switch fails and doesn't lock the lid. How would the consumer know it needed to be fixed? Is it me or have the people in charge of making or passing the laws completely lost all ability to reason? If anything, that statement should force the passage of right to repair.
    And did any of those representatives of the industry say anything substantive past their first opening remarks? When questioned all they did was revert back to their original statements which did not even answer the questions being asked.
