What you're talking about is right to repair. And yeah there should be a law that prevents them from controlling your device after you've purchased it. If this is something you want you should definitely write to your local Congress people. And if they won't listen vote for someone else.
Otherwise it is most definitely buyer beware.
You put it like that's unrelated, but it's all part of the same scheme through which we own less and less.
In my opinion the buyer shouldn't have to beware, but I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on that.
You somehow failed to read this part.
I'm not American
Do you live in a totalitarian state? Do you not get to vote for your government officials? Doesn't matter if you're American or not, right to repair and consumer rights isn't solely an American issue.
No, you're right. It was a bit dismissive of me.
Though rather than convincing just my local elected officials I'd rather also convince others out there, whom might become an additional voice for those local elected officials to hear.
