R2R or Right to Repair is the movement and campaign to make repair options widely available at reasonable cost, and to outlaw practices which unnecessarily make repair uneconomic, difficult or virtually impossible. Such practices include non-availability or exhorbitant cost of spare parts or service information, manufacturing methods making disassembly difficult, and parts pairing or software locks restricting repair to the manufacturer or their authorised agents. These practices are commonly justified by often spurious arguments relating to maintaining quality and security.
