I think at this point it makes sense. I imagine most consumers aren’t interested in repairing themselves, but aren’t super interested in going to some random local repair shop. At this point they have their consumers hooked on visiting the Apple Store. Not really a net loss for them, plus it gives off the appearance of being consumer friendly.
- dartos 3y agoYep. They probably see the writing on the wall for right to repair and want to get ahead of it while just casually taking the lead in the iphone repair market

- wredue 3y agoYeah. And on this topic, a Canadian channel just installed spyware on a PC, and loaded it with lewd images, then asked a bunch of shops to fix the computer. And all of them except a couple that either didn’t turn the laptop on yet, or just full wiped, accessed, and even copied the images. I would definitely like for some things to be reasonably accessible to me for fixing so I didn’t have to rely on privacy disrespecting repair shops.
