Google has backed a Right to Repair bill (SB 542) in Oregon, US, and released a white paper called "Google & Repairability." The white paper outlined "core principles" for lawmakers to consider when drafting regulations, stressing that "user safety should be a top priority." Google's latest move comes as a surprise considering it lobbied against the legislation in the state back in 2021.
