Be nice if companies had to open source firmware they are going to EoL.
Be nice?
It must become.law. we want to lower e-waste? Yen if companies stop supporting their products, het must open source all of it
I mean, be nice if the US didn't turn into a dictatorship in a few months. Don't see any company-unfriendly laws going in effect there any time soon. But perhaps in Europe there's still some chance of this happening.
Hopefully, but it's easier to tell each company what they should do instead of giving them rules that they try to workaround. There are many examples.
