Recently, Microsoft shareholders took a stand on right to repair. They have filed a resolution demanding the company make its products easier to repair. Here’s more from MOTHERBOARD:
According to As You Sow, the right-to-repair is important to Microsoft’s shareholders because discarded electronics are destroying the world’s environment….“Microsoft is a corporate leader in pledging to take substantial action to reduce climate emissions; yet our Company actively restricts consumer access to device repairability, undermining our sustainability commitments by failing to recognize a fundamental principle of electronics sustainability: that overall device environmental impact is principally determined by the length of its useful lifetime,” the shareholders’ resolution said.
