Lets you fix your electronics or choose who does, not just the manufacturer.
This bill would make it easier and potentially cheaper for people to repair their digital electronics. It would require manufacturers to share repair information and parts with independent shops and owners, and stop them from using tricks that block outside repairs.
Today, electronics manufacturers often control who can fix your devices by limiting access to parts, tools, and repair information. This bill would require them to share these resources with independent repair shops and owners on fair terms, and would ban practices that block outside repairs. This means people would have more options for getting their digital electronics fixed, potentially saving money and extending the life of their products.
