Google joins Samsung in working with iFixit on a self-repair program

"The consumer tech industry as a whole has gotten more serious about self-repairs in recent years."

More likely the tech industry has become more aware that the momentum for Right To Repair legislation is gaining and they are going to be compelled to do this sooner or later. I would be more impressed if Google and Samsung started making phones that were meant to be easily user-serviceable in the future.

Louis Rossmann has turned the tide here. He says he doesn't want to be the face of right to repair, but I think his hour-long rants while he repairs apple boards have somehow brought this into the mainstream
