  • Why Companies Make It Hard To Repair Your Devices ft. Louis Rossman
    Jul 16 2024

    ColdFusion has had a request for a really long time to cover the topic - so what better way to do it than to make a video about it on the main channel and to speak to Louis Rossman - one of the most well known advocates of the movement!

    Right to repair movement seeks to give consumers and independent shops the ability to repair their electronic devices. Louis owns Rossmann Repair Group in New York City, specializing in Apple product repairs and he gained fame through his YouTube channel, where he offers repair tutorials and critiques industry practices that limit consumer rights.
