It's so strange all the comments in here about how modern electronic stuff is completely fine because "it just needs to be open sourced so it's maintainable". Yet not a single modern car does this, nor does any manufacturer have any motivation to do this, nor does any manufacturer plan to do this, nor will any car ever actually have this. It's a completely dead argument.
Governments can shift the balance in favour of consumers with right to repair laws. The argument is only dead if we accept this situation. If it's dead in the US, that's because democracy is finished.
