No surprises here. Just like the lockdown on iPhone screen and part replacements, Macbooks suffer from the same Apple’s anti-repair and anti-consumer bullshit. Battery glued, ssd soldered in and can’t even swap parts with other official parts. 6000$ laptop and you don’t even own it.

    One guy interprets enjoying property peacefully as in repair rights, you interpret it as dont hit your neighbour with it and I’m the one trolling, amazing. Enjoying peacefully means you have the recognized right to own shit. Here is an example of violating that right and stealing someone’s shit in wikipedia right under the property article

    In the case of Mifsud and others v Malta (38770/17) the Maltese state was found to have violated Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the convention. The case involved a plot of land owned by the Mifsud family and their heirs which was expropriated twice (in 1984 and in 2012)

    Expropriate definition: (especially of the state) take away (property) from its owner.

      As in a company cannot disallow you from doing anything you want with you’re device, because you own it! I guess they can try and make it more difficult by the way they design the product, but that’s actually illegal in some countries and states. For example my country has right to repair legislation for certain types of applicances.
