As far as John Deere goes, a friend of mine had an issue related to the electronic control system, ecu, pcm, whatever you want to call it. JD gave him such a hard time that he came to me and had me build an open source ecu to control the entire tractor (Speeduino based).

I posted that comment as an anecdote that might show people in these situations, that there are ways to get around these companies blocking you from fixing - modifying- or doing whatever the hell you want with your property. These bespoke computer systems, embedded software, systems etc... are just control systems that can be replicated. The automotive aftermarket has been doing this forever with standalone computers to control engines, transmissions, and even modern vehicle LAN systems. These allow people to ditch restrictive or feature poor factory units for something more advanced that gives the user access and control over every system from fuel to emissions controls. I understand how frustrating what these manufacturers are doing is which is why I learned how to get around it. I'm not a genius I just knew there was more than one way to skin This particular cat, plus I'm not rich.

Marques, thanks for bringing this up. Maybe 1,5 yes ago I cracked a pixel 3a, but found it hard to find replacement parts. I considered looking for on eBay etc for comparable parts to replace at home, but felt concerned about quality & reliability etc. I live on the Dutch side of the border but had bought the pixel 3a at a German Mediamarket nearby where it was on sale, incl insurance. I took the phone in to get fixed and didn't hear back for a week. The call centre is all the way across the country in Berlin and it was "impossible to transfer me" but would make sure to call me back asap. I never got that call, but have continually called Mediamarket and the insurance company (who claim the phone is with the shop), and I have driven the 45 mins to the facility (when cross border & other COVID restrictions allowed) where they told me the phone is with the insurance company but that someone would call me the next work day "even I drop dead". All delays have been blamed on waiting for a shipment on parts. Maybe this ties in to the right to repair. Either way, I have been left with suspicion for insurance and the feeling that the whole system is rigged to rip people off. Is there anything I could have done?

True, although if I was already a multimillionaire (heck, even one million would do), I'd do the same thing. It could potentially hurt me economically, but my life is already economically set, so why wouldn't I do what's actually important? Plus this will not really bring Marques' channel down or his viewed down. The worst it could do is to not get him even more views/money, for some videos when there's an unique new device, but when you make probably tens of thousands of dollars monthly, there's no real reason to make even more while not speaking up about truly important things. Because if someone in his position did that, sacrifice his integrity for even more money - that would indicate a pathology, a pathological relationship with money, I think (today even billionaires always want more, and this is just sick, literally sick).

Worked at the Genius Bar and had to turn down customers over the simplest repairs bc I wasn’t allowed to do it and instead was told to push selling a new phone or I’d get in trouble. I’m so glad you are talking about this.

most recent MKBHD vid: Apple announces right to repair program haha

I agree with a lot of what you said. Here are my thoughts on the matter. Regarding the hazards of taking things apart; Yes it is "dangerous" to take electrical things apart, especially if it contains large capacitors that can store a lot of current. This is especially important when working on a power supply. The quick fix is having some basic information about electronics and the right tools. A person new to repairing could then read about how to safely discharge large capacitors and then it's perfectly safe to work with (when not plugged in a wall outlet). But here is the beauty of right to repair. If more people were more used to repairing their own equipment, they would share it freely on social media or other online platforms. Books are also a good source when it comes to repairing electrical devices. Tools are very cheap now and a lot of devices use SMD components that are soldered with hot air. It's do-able but takes practice to it yourself. I wish I could repair my own devices easier because I think I already create too much e-waste as things are now. It's so expensive to get parts that it's easier to just buy a new phone and it's sad. My dad's old computer was 25 years old when he retired it, and it was still working at that time. Now you can barely have any electrical device last more than 5 years. It can't be good for the environment. I think it's also up to us to settle with having an older phone model and not the latest tech all the time. The device is still serving a purpose. I dabbled with repairing my own things and sometimes I manage to fix it. I fixed my 10 year old television that was still going strong. I managed to fix it with the help of russian KZread videos that was translated on the fly and I had enough information to repair my TV to a working state. I eventually replaced it but just repairing it added at least 2 years of it's life span. I took to a communal garbage disposal facility so it's taken apart and exposed of properly in a safely manner. Try to repair things before throwing them away is not only fun, but good for the environment. You are learning a new skill! What's not to love c'mon?!

Let's not forget that it is not only about you repairing the device yourself at home, but that you can take it to any shop that you trust to make the repair.

Great topic, well executed! Thnx for brining this to our attention. One more thought on your last point, companies invest so much on great engineers because they want to make everything more integrated, not just for the product to work better, but also to be more complicated to be repaired. I don't see any problem with a phone battery being removable, and can be easily done by the companies, but they give no proper explanation why that can't be done except maybe "waterproofing".

This was one of the best videos I've watched this year

I literally wrote my Master's thesis around right to repair. Well, why right to repair is essential for future engineers. Anyway, when I was a kid took apart everything in the house because I wanted to know how things worked. I didn't take apart the microwave though but that was only because it was over the range and at 12 years old I wasn't strong enough to take it out of the wall and cabinet. Anyway, I made a lot of mistakes in my tinkering. For example, I took apart one of my family TV's, the CRT kind, the big, heavy kind. That's when I discovered the flyback high discharge lead. Yes, it hurt. But I learned something. One, I needed to know how to safely discharge the CRT before poking around. Second, instructions, manuals, any type of learning materials would have been helpful had I been able to access them. I was a curious kid though and wanted to know (mind you, this was before the internet, the late 80's). I believe you should have the right to repair what you own, and maybe that's the real argument. But just because repairing your device might be a little dangerous isn't an excuse to prevent anyone from repairing it. If we teach our kids that it is too dangerous to investigate, to try and repair your cracked screen or replace the battery then we really are losing a generation of young engineers. I broke a lot of things growing up because I wanted to know how they worked. I accepted the consequences going into it and sometimes it was painful in more ways than one. But the value of hands-on learning and investigation was invaluable to me. So you need a heat gun to take the screen off your phone. So what. Lithium-Ion batteries are dangerous. So? Give us the information to be safe and repair these products ourselves. I guarantee you that there are some kids today that will not be intimated or stymied by the danger of a battery catching fire or industrial epoxy. If they want to take it apart they will. The question is are we going to help them put it back together. I'm ranting, but we're killing a generation of engineers because of corporate profit and control.

I too agree that we need to have Right to Repair, because first at all we still Buy the products and not Rent the products. Repairing your stuff isn't something bad, we will have less waste around. But the problem with repair is that many companies are pushing high prices for the parts, I have seen a lot of waste because for many people is easier and cheaper to Buy a new thing instead to Repair it. I think the stuff around us should me more accessible and easier to maintain, right of repair is a right of someone's personal choice. Also right of repair should be a more moral question, If we repair something is that going to be safe and good for the others around, for the people, nature, etc. I'm very very glad because many started to talk about this 😀 I and I love how Marques and Louis talk open about this questions 👍👍👍

@@Tom_Stevens617 no my friend, they bar companies from getting a $5 part to independent repair companies and charge users $1500 to repair the same problem. When Linus wanted to get a replacement motherboard from Apple, they would only sell him a motherboard with CPU + RAM even though those were socketed and there was no need to sell those together as that were not damaged. He also had to pay $4000 for 3 parts when the device costs around $5000. The bill of materials cost of a device is not 4/5th of the cost of the device. I am not pointing out a particular manufacturer, just pointing out real world examples. Also another one, a company would not sell a $500 motor on an operating bed, did not allow the manufacturer of the motor to sell it directly to the hospital, but instead forced them to buy a new $10,000 operating bed.

The problem of viewing an increase in quality with an increase in complexity is that the complexity is not from quality, the complexity is from Apple and similar companies realizing that minimalist aesthetic drives profits. There is nothing saying that your Iphone couldn't be 5% larger and use the extra space to make the components much more reparable. And not only that, there are videos out there showing that if you take two identical IPhones and swap the screens and logic boards in them, they gain artificial glitches and malfunctions because Apple has installed serial numbers into the software of the phone that allows it to detect when anything has been swapped, even for identical apple produced parts. All those glitches and malfunctions seem to magically go away when you put the factory parts back in. The increase in complexity is not an accident and it's not from quality. It's done on purpose solely to drive profits.

You spoke about repairability getting more difficult with devices, and while that is partially true, companies are also making their devices explicitly harder to get into. For laptops for example there is a lot that is effectively impossible to replace just because it’s all soldered in, but a company like framework will show up and show to everyone that you can make a perfectly good laptop without those restrictions. While phones would be harder obviously, there is a lot they could do to assist the user in repairs, like not using weird screws, hardware locking the phone if something is tampered with (apple I’m looking at you), or just making everything more difficult to access inside. Sure, waterproofing will be lost and that’s unavoidable, but there is a lot they could do to make the process less tedious. That’s not even in regards to what they pull off legally, blocking bills, making service points worthless for certain products and so much more.

Right, but Apple, John Deere, medical equipment manufacturers, etc., prevent you from buying replacement parts from their suppliers, even if they designed the product to be repairable... So only the manufacturer can repair the device even if it's easy to do! Separately from the hardware design, manufacturers are using software to ensure that you can't replace parts by, say, taking a part off of an old tractor and putting into your broken tractor!! The only reason this isn't the case with (gasoline) cars is because it's illegal. And it's not like we are asking companies to publish source code... Just don't make the software reject replacement parts!! Or release a premade software tool that allows you to enable the replacement part/calibrate it.

If you have a Steam account, you do NOT own the games you buy, you license them and at any time it can come to a crashing halt. People don't realize why some harp over owning, genuinely owning their stuff. This applies to all software, and why one should really read their EULA or ToS. You'd likely never click "agree" if you knew that you forego all standing.

this was much needed 😀

Nice you took that stance on the topic.

Well said, and well analyzed.
