  • New York passes functionally toothless Right to Repair bill

    My rights start where yours end. Full stop - you would think it simple enough a concept for those in the comments to understand… but no…

    Apple and all those companies trying to force on us their recurrent payment business model have the right to try to convince us to do so but NOT FORCE IT ON US.

    Rossmann is a modern day hero and his advocating will result in better quality of life for all. 

    My hat is off to the writer of the article and appleibsider for taking a stance.

    Macocalypse, 

    your answer is an affront to every thinking abled person. 
    A jumble of purposeful confusion.
    You care to disclose your financial ties to apple and the likes or perhaps to their lobbying representatives?

    Apple would be better off leaving all EU countries.
    Sure understand the sentiments behind such a statement but you do realise that apple would never ever even consider it? Right? You do know that the European market is larger than the US market in most metrics? Yes?

    Cool. The pressure is on. Maybe apple will now contemplate paying its fair share in taxes to European countries it operates in to make this bill more palatable. When you steal from the hand that feeds you time after time again something like this was inevitable and it makes perfect sense that google and amazon are next.
    Orrrrrr …. Just an idea … maybe get your member states to fix their tax laws and stop screwing each other over?
    Intent here is everything. There is no question that it takes two to tango but the one leading the dance is apple/google/amazon/samsung. Their intent is to cheat full stop. 

    Their actions are clear but somehow their are those who think: “wow thats how to make money, well one day I’ll do the same so this method better still be available to me then” or “well the stock will go up and I’ll make a bunch” Some might call you a hypocrite. I do not I could call you an enabler, a sympathiser, an accomplice. I don’t. My choice of words is to call you ‘willing fools’. Their is historical context to this you could look it up.
