Imagine as part of "Elbows Up" having a Government legislative program to guarantee a right to repair, with an emphasis on reducing e-waste (sustainability) and curbing anti competitive practice. This would include banning DRM.

Unlikely to happen.

it can start slow.

- repeal DMCA-style anti-circumvention crap
- prohibit non replacable batteries
- require supply of repair instruction and parts
- prohibit part keying

Etc.

We got Portugal to remove protection from anti circumvention crap that forbids legal uses of works, because if it prevents them, then it's no longer "effective technological protection measures". It's not hard to understand the effects of that, right? Right? ;)
