= What is right to repair?
In short, "right to repair" is the ability to fix the products you purchase. Because of the decline in the ease of repairing many electronic goods, a movement has evolved around the idea of right to repair. The principle of the movement is that if you own a product, you should have the ability to obtain the parts, documentation, tools, and software access needed to repair or modify the product. Right to repair as a movement is assertive of the concept "that ownership should be absolute"--that buying means buying the freedom to maintain it and restore it without relying exclusively on the manufacturer @repair-org.

A meaningful piece of right to repair legislation should include several consumer-rights guarantees: access to fairly priced replacement parts; access to service manuals, or at the minimum, schematics; access to diagnostic or specialty tools; and the ability to unlock any software restrictions @what-is-right-to-repair.
Decades ago, most consumer goods--such as cars and radios--were designed to be opened and serviced by anyone with basic mechanical skills, a lot of the time, there were even service manuals and schematics printed inside the products or supplied with them. @what-is-right-to-repair. Recently however, there has a been a significant shift in the culture surrounding repair. As electronics advanced, becoming physically smaller, they became increasingly dependant on software, and these devices began being sealed shut, and their technical information was withheld from end users. This shift towards disposable, products gave rise to the modern right-to-repair movement.
