For our inaugural episode we welcome Aaron Perzanowski, author of the book The Right to Repair: Reclaiming the Things We Own to discuss just how we arrived at a point where institutions and corporations have become hostile to repair – and what tools we have at our disposal to fight back. Aaron lends his legal expertise to help us understand the role that antitrust regulations, intellectual property law, and market power play in reclaiming our right to repair.
