He also runs a tech repair shop in New York, I could see him being in a lot of tech stuff you’re seeing
Okay but I see him in a lot of tech related posts lately, also not about right to repair.

Oof I need to catch up a bit then, when did that happen?

A year or two ago I think. He sold it off and opened a new shop in Texas after becoming sick and tired of dealing with red tape in NYC, paying fees and taxes etc.

He went up against tech industries by getting the right to repair into law.
Now that the train is fully in motion, he’s turned his attention to other shitty things that corporations are doing to inform, educate and sometimes fix.
It’s a public service and I’d rather have more of him then internet shills who sell their souls for more ad revenue (advocating for dodgy/bad products which in some cases are outright scams, inflating video lengths to 9 mins so they can get extra revenue etc).
