Wozniak’s backing of the right-to-repair movement comes as President Biden could soon direct the Federal Trade Commission to draft new rules that prevent manufacturers from limiting consumers’ ability to repair products on their own or at independent shops, a person familiar with the plan recently told Bloomberg.

White House economic adviser Brian Deese said an executive order could be released in the coming days and is designed to drive “greater competition in the economy, in service of lower prices for American families and higher wages for American workers.”

This comes after the European Commission announced new right-to-repair rules for laptops, smartphones, and tablets.

Wow.

Goal:

The people who are allowed to live will be forced into huge concrete apartments with fully controlled heating, cooling, electric use, online use, and fully surveilled in every aspect of their miserable existence. Like mice in a giant cage.

That is their goal. No freedoms whatsoever. Good they’re being open and clear about it including the fine print.
