That sucks!
We the consumer need to be more mindful about our purchases. We need to pay more attention to available information that can help drive purchase decisions, like the Ifixit.com repairability scores for smartphones. We then need to vote with our dollars so manufacturers know this isn't acceptable, both in terms of environmental sustainability, and financial prudence for the end users.

>The problem is that mfgs will default to saying it heightens injury allowing them to only sell assemblies, which often cost ~75% of the hardware, making repair by 3rd party companies unprofitable.
Not only unprofitable for the repair businesses, but unviable for the consumer, thus making the law entirely toothless.

I agree. But preparing for what can be armageddon is still…unbelievable.

The prospect of Norway, a NATO country, preparing for possible attacks is beyond shocking, especially if the attackers can be traced back to Putin's Russia. No one's going to benefit from this powderkeg going off.

>There are already experimental automated grocery warehouses where robots put together orders.
I'll believe it's feasible when Amazon start using it. If nothing else, they have consistent volume that they can use to amortize the cost of this. Plus I'm pretty sure Jeff Bezos will enjoy not dealing with unflattening news about Amazon warehouse working conditions.
