This practice, sadly commonly used in our &#8220;throwaway&#8221; system, means that electronic products are designed to make repair difficult or unfeasible, with a limited lifespan.

The current proposal lacks ambition. The Commission plans to only introduce four product regulations per year, starting in 2024.
