I wonder if instead of pushing for right to repair, wouldn't it be better to push for the abolition of intellectual property altogether.
Those are two seperate issues really. You can abolish IP but a company could still produce products that aren't repairable
True, but they'd have to compete against alternatives that are repairable, because the IP no longer impedes that competition.
