A “right to repair” movement tools up
Why don&#x27;t we just pay for <i>services</i> instead of buying products? This pushes the problem of maintenance to the service provider, thus making it more efficient and thus cheaper and more environment-friendly. Also, it completely eliminates the problem of planned obsolescence.<p>There are some downsides, such as that usage of the service outside the contract becomes impossible, so contracts should be sufficiently broad (and not targeting just the average people). And you don&#x27;t &quot;own&quot; your product (which could be a psychological problem). But I guess that&#x27;s about it.
