  • Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak is a right to repair advocate

    Because of “freedom” we will have:
    - Smartphone without basic apps, and we will forced to download third party apps

    This has nothing to do with Right to Repair, but God Forbid you have to download the Mail app from the App Store and realize there's better products while you're doing it.

    - Devs desperate for all pirated and modded softwares thanks to sideloading.. for freeeeedom, Android style!

    Again this has nothing to do with Right to Repair, but you can have your sideloading and your walled garden at the same time. Apple just doesn't want to.

    - terrible repairs with third party low quality parts, more bulky phone since manufacture will need to make things to replace easier without paying a certified shop. Sure user will blame Apple for iPhone without water resistance after a repair, for audio working badly, ghost touch on tablets and go on.. but we will really free and we would saved 10 dollars on repair!

    You know, if Right to Repair was a thing, you could buy parts straight FROM APPLE and utilize OEM parts to repair your devices. And shops could advertise that they only use OEM Apple parts for their repairs. But those are third party low quality parts?

    Stop being a shareholder and be a consumer for a hot second.
