     @freetechproject @rysiek I’m a little surprised that it's not universally understood.

     "Suppose that chair you're sitting in broke.”

     "Yeah?”

     “And you want to fix it, right?”

     "Sure."

     “What if someone told you it was illegal to fix it?”

     "I'd laugh at them."

     “There, now you get it.”

     @tek no no see but a chair is not a computer! And here it's about computers! Computers are complicated and scary and magical, we can't have just anyone fixing their own computer, can we now!
