> including a repair obligation for manufacturers of certain products

Unfortunately regulations often don't go far enough.

I have a ~10 year old iPad Pro in perfect working condition. I can basically do nothing with it, and increasingly it can no longer even browse the internet because Safari is so outdated on it.

So it will be waste.

See similar story about Amazon bricking old Kindles: https://www.techradar.com/tablets/ereaders/amazon-bricking-c...

But, this regulation is still a tiny step in the right direction.
