- kube-system 5y agoThere's no comma after that phrase indicating that it's a separate item in the list. I believe that is intended to be read as "digital electronic product or embedded software found in medical settings." After all, the description of what the bill does apply to is "digital electronic equipment". Interpreting it to apply to "equipment" but not "products" doesn't really make sense.
- kwiens 5y agoCorrect. That exemption is for medical equipment. California's Right to Repair bill, which got very close to passing this year, was solely focused on medical equipment. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billStatusClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220SB605 https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billStatusClient.xh...
