    The Minnesota law covers all electronics except cybersecurity tools, video game consoles, cars, medical devices, and farm equipment.

    Wow, not to suggest that this bill isn’t better than the alternative, but those are some awful exclusions.

    A lot of the early right to repair movement came out of farm equipment, and medical devices are the most obvious need for rules like this.

      Being some of the most threatened categories of things is no doubt why they were excluded.
