Agreed. I don't believe them when they say this. Plus, 10 months from now? People won't remember, they won't be held accountable.

You do realise that according to CNBC Elon has paid 15 billion on taxes in 2021?
The ignorance in some people.

Admit to having to create another one? Sure.
Again you don’t have the gotcha moment you think you do. 😂
And you’re still factually wrong, and I’m still not the other commenter. 🤣

Reply to comment by fredlllll in 11 states consider 'right to repair' for farming equipment by Ranew
Actually, every piece of farming equipment has this as a standard feature. According to the article those sorts of things wouldn't be changing with this law because they would mean removing safeguards.
The law proposed would make something like the MOU JD signed into law in some states. It's not certain what consequences this would have with the contracts. Which is why they're only considering this and not doing this. They have to study the particular impacts of this decision. They don't want to sign it into law and find out that they made a law that creates a recall issue that cripples agricultural for a year.

It's not a pure monopoly. It's more like how Google has a monopoly on web searches... but then there's still Bing.

In all the places I’ve ever lived, I’ve never once have a choice of my Internet broadband provider. It was either Comcast or spectrum. that’s the real problem.

Right? I couldn’t think about anything besides how much this sounds like a dystopia when I read the title. How was it not the default option that people can repair their possessions?

Uhm, no. Lobbying is literally just telling an elected official what you want them to do. Not sure how a democracy could function without it.

Its on fire for farmers because of how equipment that depends on this is used. They use implements and machines for only certain times. They have windows of time and weather to do something. To plant, cultivate or harvest. The rest of the time the machine sits. If they miss the opportunity waiting for a repair or a license issue to be fixed (cause it happened during one of these windows) they can lose their entire income for the year. I don't think any one would argue we all should be able to but the consequence for farmers is very high.
Quick example, have the DEF sensor goes bonkers (the additive for diesel) and the tractor will shut down. Right in the field or road. Can't move it (well you can move it a little for awhile). Have to have someone remote into the machine to get things to work. In the middle of no where. You can't do it. Imagine your car shutting down in the middle of your commute, because of not a mechanical failure as much as the temp sensor in the cabin was wrong. Agree everyone should be able to repair, be thankful farmers are making a lot of noise. It will help all of us.
The other thing...we all need to read EULA better. We sign to much of our rights away.

The problem I have with this is that the taxpayers are funding these new chargers but there is no limit to how much Tesla can charge the drivers who use them. What's to stop Tesla from charging non-Tesla drivers 10x the price that Tesla drivers pay to recharge?

Well as it turns out that's not the big gotcha you think it is. The thread is older than this account. Big deal. Offended little folks love to report accounts and get them suspended because they think it's funny.
Doesn't change the fact that you are standing on some crazy hill about odd vs even years, changing the text to match your game. But I guess that's what you were playing with the other guy. Not my problem. I saw the comment, it's patently incorrect, so I stated so and showed the evidence. Your beef with the other commenter, fine, go talk to them.
Still wrong about the facts. LOL
