The bill outlines three years for products costing $50 to $99.99 and seven years for products priced at $100 or more. The bill will cover electronics and appliances made and sold after July 1st, 2021.
So we’re going to get repair parts available from Xbox and Nintendo? And ways to flash a firmware onto it? It seems hard to imagine what this will look like in practice. It’s one thing to see fairphone or framework do it and it’s another thing to consider what it looks like for everyone.
Read elsewhere gaming handhelds may be exempt. Unsure if that’s accurate.
The bill text excludes video game consoles completely.
