    other companies arent engineering serial numbers and other identity information into every component, even shit as small as halleffect sensors, so it cant be taken from a damaged device to repair a differnt device of the same make and model.

    To act like what apple does is an industry standard is nothing but blatant apple fanboy propaganda.

      Oh no, they are bastards. Extra big bastards in a sea of bastards. I blame regulators. The hope is the right to repair because law in more and more places in more and more market areas.

      Without the EU regulators, Apple would never have gone USB C.
