PeterDTown - "Why is this even being upvoted at this point?"
Nyctomancer - "Because about a quarter of most people don't bother to read anything other than headlines. That still amounts to tons of votes."

ShuRugal - "Geldoland, obviously."
monegs - "They recently shortened it to Geldo....by recent I mean the 20th century"
captainbubbs - "This isn't new. This has been a battle with tech giants for decades. Lobbiests keep winning with the politicians. And it's not just phones."
Friendly-Bee-1791 - "I don’t think hospital ventilators is a great example here, where there are thousands of examples of other types of companies charging insane prices for repair on electronics for entertaining purposes. I am factory-trained on 6 ventilator models and each training was a week- long intensive training with a test at the end. No pass- no work on vent. In most cases other “hospital workers” would seriously endanger people’s lives if they tried to repair the vents I work on. The liability issues are gigantic."

Blackpapalink - "Not to mention some of the blindest, most loyal fanboys and fangirls. Nintendo would blush at the fanaticism of Apple fanboys."
L1amm - "Idk man, Apple to me is the shittiest company to ever exist, especially when it comes to right to repair or making products for the consumer that are fixable instead of replaceable for maximum profits."
ai-bot-fans - "Ya it's time you caught up with 2023."
