Don’t companies have the right to protect their intellectual property? “Absolutely. That doesn’t change what we’re trying to do - fix a battery or a cracked screen on a phone,” says @OpenMediaOrg’s @ltribe @iFixit https://t.co/XKGgteKuBz

.@CdnInfoLaw at @CompBureau #DataForum (paraphrasing): Digital literacy is the key not just for consumers to know their rights but to know how to exercise them. Hello @Telecom_ConsIR work with @mfcavanagh ... though we have a rather nuanced view on this.

Pay off your mobile phone? Your bill might not drop. https://t.co/L1ntIY6f2A With the exception of Freedom, no carrier confirmed the device subsidy is removed from the total bill at the end of the 24-month contract if you don’t do anything to change plans.

On #WorldConsumerRightsDay, throwback to my @IRPP piece on #ConsumerRights in a radically different marketplace, when virtually all aspects of our lives & social interactions are made possible by, & conditional on, being consumers first. https://t.co/KkaaM2vp99
