Laws being made in good faith and corporations taking advantage of ambiguities or loopholes for "compliance" has been the staple of western corporate lore. I'm sure many of those commenters would love replaceable batteries with usb-c port on their phones too.

    Sure but if anybody clicks through to read the article they can see the full wording of the law. It goes on for pages and pages it's far from ambiguous. This isn't just something they thought above on a random Friday afternoon this is something that's been worked on for a few years now.

    Yes, but then there's this decades-long tradition of Lemmy/Reddit/Digg/Slashdot/etc users not reading the actual article and comment based only from headlines often crafted to maximize engagement.
