There’s 170 computer chips in our cell phones
Where the hell are they getting that number from lmfao, everything is fairly consolidated these days, unless they’re just counting every capacitor and resistor as a “computer chip” lol

No idea,but remember these statements aren’t meant for the technically inclined it’s meant for your average Joe.
It probably refers less to individual chips and more to individual components.
Hopefully right to repair laws will continue to spread which will make it difficult for companies to restrict business in specific states.
The irony here is that their constant push against a national standard for right to repair means that all these companies are now going to have to deal with slightly different laws in every single state that are an absolute nightmare to comply with.
