   @zorinlynx Yep, it would be great - their process already securely wipes data on the system.

   But all they care about is selling new systems. Until the right pressure gets put on them, they have no reason to consider such a program.

     @mac84tv I think regulation is the way to go. It’s not a whole lot that’s being asked either.

     I understand the locking thing, as a theft thing. But why couldn’t Apple themselves open them and sell them? Just donate any profits to environmental charities.

     If they don’t want to keep supporting old MacOS with patches, how about a law that says you have to either support hardware or release the specs?

     Also any product a company make, the should be responsible to recycle.
