I want @EUCommission & @BMWK to #ban #AntiRepairDesign as pioneered and rolled out by #Apple and copied by a lot of others!

Anything else is undue #Leniency against any #GAFAMs that build #unrepairable #electronics!

@dw_innovation and that's also added by #AntiRepairDesign by all the #GAFAMs that do imacceptable stuff like #SolderedDownStorage, #SolderedDownRAM, #GluedInBatteries and #RivetedKeyboards that have no reason to exist except fleecing customers by overcharging them for more #Szorage & #RAM as well as enshuring #Repairability is twarted below cost-effective.

And don't even get me started on #MamfacturedEwaste like #AI #Chips and #ASIC|s for #Shitcoins like #Bitcoin which are inherently #unsustainable and unlike #CPU|s, #GPU|s and other #UsedHardware not really #refurbishable and #recycle-able or even #upcycle-able beyond being "the most complex, noisy and inefficient space heaters possible"...

@foone I already do that as a #Sysadmin who knows how to use #photorec & #ddrescue...

  • Seriously, shit like this never happens under my watch.

  • Also #SolderedDownStorage like #SSD's automatically disqualifies a system for procurement and use in my book unless it has a reasonable exception and won't contain sensitive data (i.e. smartphone).

People who dislike that rule should whine at #Apple & co. for their #Enshittification with #SolderedSSDs!
