Linus supports Framework for releasing schematics because it empowers users to repurpose hardware and avoid waste, which aligns with his stance on right-to-repair.

“Framework also released schematics on github to help people design their own 3d printable cases if they want to repurpose an old board for vasa mounted aio desktop use this is awesome this is the kind of reduce and reuse that help us avoid the third r word recycle”

Luke believes manufacturers should have a tiered responsibility system where full technical schematics are published once a product reaches end-of-life.

“by the time this product is completely eol and you are no longer supporting it in any way it is my belief that the full schematics just need to be published”
