"The Emerging 'Right to Repair' legislation in the EU and the U.S." is a scholarly source pre-printed in the Lund University Libraries discussing new right to repair laws, and the impact on the environment and economy thereof. It starts by discussing the current state of right to repair and how the consumer doesn't get to make the choice of if they will fix a product themselves anymore. The paper then examines specific barriers to open access and repair, such as EULA (End-User License Agreement) forbidding "unauthorized repair," or planned obsolescence. After listing the barriers, the paper proceeds to suggest policy and regulatory changes to protect consumer rights, eliminating or diminishing the barriers previously examined. Concerns about brand reputation, consumer safety, and privacy issues with independent repair are briefly mentioned, then the paper concludes by discussing how right to repair and open access laws should prioritize the benefit to the consumer, and of the environment. I plan on using the source to go in depth on how passing right to repair laws will improve the economy, and to discuss the current barriers to right to repair by referencing examples discussed in the paper.
