A pretty comprehensive video by Hugh Jeffreys covering how Apple has been restricting repairability in their devices, even before 2012.

P.S. Apple’s iPhones may be exempt from California’s R2R bill, apparently they slipped an exemption in there for “waterproof portable devices” 🤦‍♂️

That bill has exception for game console. Latest iPhone can play resident evil port. Therefore iPhone is a game console and is exempt.

Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde “oem” parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.
