Summary: This Kyle Wiens talk, "repair is not a crime", is an excellent talk about how warranty-voiding stickers are basically illegal and it "is about Right to Repair, which now has support from the Biden administration and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and progress is being made in Europe, Australia, and Canada."
