Comment on Oregon Passes 'Right to Repair' Law With Extra Cojones: Oregon’s “right to repair” bill, which now only needs the governor’s signature before it becomes law, has teeth not found in similar legislation

You’d rather have a phone that randomly crashes?

It doesn’t get progressively slower over time, it’s either in degraded mode or it isn’t.
If you want to use a car analogy, it’s comparable to limp mode. When your car detects an engine problem it goes into limp mode in which you don’t have full performance but you can at least get home. You’d rather have your car not do this and risk damaging the engine, or would you prefer it to simply stop working and leave you stranded?
Batteries wear out, it’s an unfortunate property of our current battery tech. You can either let your phone get unstable (risking data loss), have it refuse to work at all, or let its run in reduced performance mode so it at least stays usable. Those are your options. Pick one.
