It’s the strongest right-to-repair law passed so far.

    It’s funny that this article doesn’t mention the one company that pretty much single handedly created the need for this legislation in the first place.

        Too bad this doesn’t affect them because they managed to get themselves an exception to the rule…

        Anything powered by a combustion engine is an exception.

      You’ll notice that there is actually an insane number of companies that create the need for this.
