>manufacturer stopped producing repair manuals for devices customers have paid for Why is a manufacturer in any way obligated to provide this information for customers (and for free, no less)? Apple is not stopping him from taking apart these devices and figuring out how to repair them but I don't see why they should shoulder any obligation to provide that information to people that refuse to become an authorized repair center (which is exactly what that authorization and certification gets them). >Someone has a broken device, they shouldn't be allowed to try and repair it themselves This is not at all the point of contention nor in any way what Apple is doing here. Stop spreading FUD.
