This seems like an obvious concern, I'm not sure why the armchair philosopher is shitting their armchair over this.
That's not a valid concern, and even if it was, blocking right to repair laws does nothing to prevent it.
I didn't see that they were blocking right to repair laws.
Right, so legislate that critical equipment is required to use certified repairs. Easy-peasy, lemon-squeezie. We don't require airplanes to be thrown away and repurchased every time maintenance is due, we require the maintenance to be certified.
I believe that is exactly what this article is recommending.
He addressed that at 2:30 and 4:35. The lobbyist is purposefully misrepresenting the reality of third party repair services in the medical field. Restricting repair access puts more people's lives at risk.
He said that immediately after noting they have no experience in medicine or medical devices.
I do and it is a genuine concern that the hospitals that are not funded well enough to make these repairs and will have the most pressure to do so.
