Eisenhower warned us about this kind of eventuality, and I personally never thought it could ever get this far. Outrageous.
The opposition to the "right to repair" is coming from the "military industrial complex"
That complex is the nexus of industrial players who have become to feel entitled to anything they want
That is what they are doing with the opposition to "right to repair" and that is what, in general terms (he was predicting the future - cut him some slack) Eisenhower was warning about.
We have a business culture that unhealthily prioritize short term profit at the expenses of product excellence and stakeholders.
