He went up against tech industries by getting the right to repair into law.
Now that the train is fully in motion, he’s turned his attention to other shitty things that corporations are doing to inform, educate and sometimes fix.
It’s a public service and I’d rather have more of him then internet shills who sell their souls for more ad revenue (advocating for dodgy/bad products which in some cases are outright scams, inflating video lengths to 9 mins so they can get extra revenue etc).
Yeah this is pretty much him. Sounds great at first glance but if you spend any time with him he’s just another techbro libertarian that thinks he’s saving the world. His content is miserable sensationalism that leans so hard on the negative that I genuinely get depressed watching it now. I can’t take anything he says at face value, it all feels cynical or coded libertarianist nonsense now.
supposedly we’re super business/small business friendly. not a business owner, but i expect there are significantly fewer fees and very significantly lower taxes for someone doing business here compared to new york. also a lot less regulation.
it’s the same reason a lot of big businesses come here.
He has a youtube channel that talks about the latest developments in the tech industry. Seems a lot of people like his videos. Its not an “issue” unless you make it one
Why does this dude’s face show up in my feed so often is the real issue here.
That’s Louis Rossman, basically the head of the right to repair movement (nobody’s really the head but for most intents and purposes it’s this guy)
If you support the right to repair, or even if you don’t, it wouldn’t hurt to look into his stuff
Okay but I see him in a lot of tech related posts lately, also not about right to repair.

He also runs a tech repair shop in New York, I could see him being in a lot of tech stuff you’re seeing
Formerly New York, now Texas.
Oof I need to catch up a bit then, when did that happen?

agreed. big fan of his work on right-to-repair, but find his libertarian pov tiresome.
How is Texas an improvement though

Fully support this guy and all his efforts but I’m really tired of seeing that face.
Hi Shepard, shitty life pro tip … Just close your eyes when you play his videos, like a Krogran blindly running into battle.

An issue is that every youtuber needs to show his face.
