    The law, like those passed in New York, California, and Minnesota, will require many manufacturers to provide the same parts, tools, and documentation to individuals and repair shops that they provide to their own repair teams.

    I’m sensing downsizing of “repair teams” in the not so distant future, with calls for repair being forwarded to sales.

      This. It sounds great, but realistically companies will just control the supply of repair materials and scalp us that way instead.
