Right to Repair affects everyone, from farmers who work with tractors and combine harvesters and the mechanics that fix cars and trucks to Electronics and Technology Engineers that repair TVs, Phones and Computers. It's up to the manufacturers to disclose device schematics, diagnostic equipment, and replacement parts to all that request it.

For too long large corporations are monopolizing their repair industry by using various forms of devious (and sometimes illegal) techniques. Techniques such as "warranty void if removed stickers"; Multilayered Processors that cannot be removed; embedded software causing electronics to malfunction are only some of the ways corporation can direct consumers back towards them.

I ask you, to tell your story about how R2R could affect you. I also want to lend a hand to small businesses who work hard every day providing quality services at reasonable prices. With everyone involved, we together can make a difference.
