Canadian software developer Luke Tully recently documented an exchange with Apple Support over the potential repair costs for a 2015 13-inch MacBook Pro in need of a screen and battery replacement.
Tully points out that Apple and other tech companies are being investigated for anti-consumer and anti-competitive behavior, and questions whether the high cost for repairs is a result of Apple pushing users towards buying a new MacBook instead of repairing their (perfectly fine) older laptop.
