> I don't imagine many are self-repairing, but there are independent repair shops too. Beyond repair shops, there is a healthy cottage industry with thousands of participants - maybe tens of thousands - who do repairs in their homes as a hobby, extra income or for friends and family. Buying and fixing broken second-hand doodads for resale can be a profitable hobby, and saves items from being consigned to trash early. Apple gets $0 from this aftermarket, and ends up competing with its own products from 2018. I don't think they are pleased about Oregon's bill, especially as we've hit the limits of Gordon's Laws.
