Someone in this thread made an example which involves repairing a mobile phone, but I am struggling to find a meaningful connection between repairing a peace of hardware and copyright laws.
Its a basic scheme by the seller to restrict use of third-party parts in order to create a monopoly, increase price and guarantee future revenue after product has been sold. In the extreme end they can even tap into the aftermarket, demanding a cut each time the car or what ever is resold. Most of this is enabled because of current copyright law, through consumer protection laws are also lagging behind current technology.
They had stacked a bunch of boxes with a Volvo logo on in the rough shape of their sedan. Then the presenter, after giving a spiel about non-brand parts, replaced one box with another that held a different logo, whereby the whole stack collapsed.
BTW, i think there was a recent dustup about HP printers and third party cartridges, where said cartridges stopped working after a certain date.
As far as I know it is the same with current HP desktops as well. Don't buy Lenovo/HP.
Seperate personal commentary: Basically, messing around with your product and changing certain bits of it can be copyright infringement. As can making videos on how to repair something (I don't have the source for that right now). Somehow, that is messing with copyrighted tech - the companies basically say that you lease the software, not own it at all. How a phone works under the case is protected information. And so on.
It seems like a scam to me, but it is what it is at this point.
