Louis Rossmann is being sued by Apple!
He made a video "about it": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7N254MTA4Q
His channel is going to be deleted anytime soon, and here's a backup that's being seeded from GFiber:

>>55357662
what a baby
lmao what a fucking crybaby
Here is the reason for the lawsuit.
>rossman is fighting for right to repair bill that would require apple, and other manufacturers to give schematics to all repair technicians, and possibly publicly accessible.
>meanwhile apple is trying to restrict repair rights so that youre not allowed to repair even without the schematics.
The channel doesnt matter, the store doesnt matter, him using the schematics doesnt matter, he has 0 affect on apples income currently, but if he continued gaining traction (as he was) that would be bad news for apples racket on repair.
This lawsuit will finally set precedent for apple to refuse allowing private repairmen to fix their devices.

Hope the judge rules in his favor.
>>55359534
i find it very unlikely, but perhaps with enough community support they will, as long as everyone remembers to contact their local congressmen when the proceedings get under way.
>>55359577
Personally I don't really care for the guy he comes off like a slimeball, but I honestly do hope he defends himself successfully against Apples freedom hating bullshit.
>>55357662
Is there actual proof it's Apple doing this and not someone else?
>>55359663
he's just got shitty hair and a new york attitude, he's actually really pleasant if you have a chat with him.
>>55357662
the video could have been a lot shorter, but I get that he was trying to be as vague as possible for a reason.
>>55359686
Its more than that, he exudes false modesty and reeks of confidence scams.

Apple is pretty much the only company he shat on so anyone else would be unlikely. It also seems like this is being done outside of DMCA (otherwise his videos would already be down) so that rules out 99% of trolls.
Obnoxious self-righteousness of the former-poor is really making my blood boil.

>>55357662
what is the reasoning behind apples decision to fuck with him?
>>55360184
they want the monopoly on the repairs of their devices I guess. More money for them.
>>55359384
This is so fucking stupid. The premise of the case I mean.
Anyone corporation can make their own schematics of a competitors product by simply opening up the product and reverse engineering it.
I suspect the corporations will win, because there is some merit to their claim. They shouldn't be forced to release that info if they don't want to.
But still, there should be common ground Jesus
>>55357662
there is no evidence that it's actually Apple, so I would kindly suggest to calm your tits, and act like rational human beings, beck up the data and seed it, whatever happens, happens.
Is his repair career over /g/?

No need to feel sorry for him, because you can tell that this mans been through a lot of shit in his life. He said he was getting bored of repairing motherboards, so maybe this is a chance to change career paths.
All in all, you'll never see this guy homeless or asking for handouts, hes just too smart.

Seriously it's a consideration. I've watched Louis for years. He certainly cares about the repair industry, that is obvious. But it's also important to note that he's a guy that wants to grow. I don't think it'd be beyond apple to sue him if they see it being advantageous for them (his channel certainly has grown a lot lately so it doesn't seem implausible).
Apple devices being a hassle to repair is a big chunk of cash for Apple. It's why you find people just buying new shit when it breaks. With android you can just keep them going until you're dissatisfied with the performance (pretty much).
But yeah it's hard to know. I certainly don't think it's implausible that he's being harassed by Apple. Maybe it will go far, maybe it won't.
>>55362869
He has an apple repair shop and has explained in the past that he doesn't repair anything but apple. He has criticized apple on a lot of things in the past.

>>55362863

How is news that your repair shop might be closing good news for your repair shop?
Personally I'd probably not leave it with Louis because who knows what apple will do to devices they find when their mercs (police) raid his place. They will probably torch them and turn them back to the users with a letter putting the blame on Louis.
>>55362355

I meant how his audience doubled or more ever since he appeared on cuck tips and became popular on a couple of shitty sites.
Don't underestimate how much money gullible people are willing to spend to feel like they are supporting a cause.
If he plays it right then he might earn enough to close his shop and retire.

You don't seem to know anything about the repair industry. There's there's auto repair shops that are doing the exact same thing. It's just that there's laws opposing doing what Apple is doing in the auto industry.
So him being politically vocal about this issue makes it sensible for them to silence him.

Yeah ideally they'd just give it to repair shops so the customer can enjoy the increased value in the device being possible to repair.

And parts.
Also, service manuals are basically schematics in this case. The schematics don't outline the firmware contents of chips, the actual makeup of chips but where they are and how they connect. What powers should be where and etc.

It really depends how old the Judge is. The older they are then the more likely they might of been raised in a rural area where many people self repaired or had someone in their town that repaired all their equipment. It really is a common sense law to allow anyone to repair their own shit. It will take a corporate money taking jew to be in favor of Apple.
I like his story about petitioning the bill in court and apple reps stating that by him soldering a wire between two contacts for a repair changes the Mac into a pc. The fact that since it is no longer factory it is no longer a mac, and him not informing his customers that they now own a pc is why independent repair people cant be trusted. But apple doesn't repair or refurbish anything. They have a simple trash and replace program, which is why their repairs are so expensive. Something wrong on your motherboard? Guess you're just gonna buy a whole new Mac without an upgrade!

Great, just what we need: another biased Judge that can't rule on things objectively.
>stupid fucking people will be the death of us all
>>55364413
The problem is that currently having things like the schematics is considered illegal, even if just the same way downloading copyrighted content that has been shared by someone else is illegal.
So long as they attack him on these purely legal matters the judge can't bring this moral shit into it.

His main issue was that authorized repair literally is not allowed to do board repair, you have to replace the entire thing.
>>55366053
None of that seems unreasonable, except maybe the location thing.
>>55366110
Not only that, but they just don't give the schematics. Any respectable manufacture would do this.
>>55366116
So much this. I worked at a Genius bar, our policy was literally "check battery, check RAM is slotted in correctly (on the nonsoldered models), check HDD is working, if those are alright and it still doesn't work, replace the entire machine."
I'll certainly miss his autistic ramblings.

He would be fine with that. He outperforms Apple standards in all regards when it comes to repair.
>>55366085
The turnaround time and performance metrics make sense, but if the shop does good repair then there is no good reason for Apple to care about the fucking shop's appearance being "consistent with the Apple brand".
It's especially galling that you literally aren't allowed to perform component level repair after all of that bullshit, even if it means saving the customer time and money
>>55366166
>People want shit done quick, what's the problem?
He can repair a board and give it back to you faster than Apple will replace a board.
And for less.
The problem is that he would have to lower the quality of his service.
>>55364559
I don't think they'll get him for that. From his videos and from other things I've seen and read the schematics are not illegal to have, but you don't "own" them the same way you don't "own" a Windows disc, you have a license for that and that makes it cool if not then it's copyright infringement. And that can be the entire case, schematics are licensed materials, not having a license and having the schematics is tantamount to copyright infringement. As simpathetic as the judge may be, it would be a pretty black and white case, his only hope is jury nullification, prayer is more effective.
>>55366218
>He can repair a board and give it back to you faster than Apple will replace a board.

A repaired board that might be more robust against the fault that caused it to fail in the first place rather than a new one that is a ticking time bomb, or has been refurbed by Apple anyway.
>I don't really believe that.
Just look it up. Most of his board repairs take about 20 minutes, plus a couple of hours for cleaning and diagnostics. Some people drop their Macbooks off at lunch time and they're ready for pick up by 2pm.
>>55366280
Trade-ins, if the board's fucked up, they refurb it and use them for ""repairs""
>>55366232
>Maybe so, but then you have a repaired board instead of a new one.
No problem here. He uses leaded solder instead of lead-free solder, which is less likely to break and by that making the machine more durable, at least on the re-soldered parts.

They throw the old boards out because none of them can repair them. There's a reason why it costs 700 dollars for them to "repair" it.
>>55366280
From the boards they originally replaced, you dumbass.
>>55366280
They take the board out of your computer, send it back to China where it gets repaired in a slave shop and gets sent back to be shoved in a new machine.
Of course, you pay full price for the board though.
What he was doing is illegal. He wanted to be a smart ass, now he can be a smart ass and defend himself in court.

>>55366310
The problem is that it shouldn't be illegal. It is anti-competitive.
I like Louis in some ways, he's right about how Apple treat their customers. In other ways I fucking hate him with a vengeance.
He's an absolute self righteous prick who think "I'm from a poor family, if anyone else from a poor family can't get rich like me they deserve their shit life". This is pretty much what he says in most of his videos.
I've no doubt he worked hard to get where he got to, but you'll always need the element of luck. There are people who work there arses off and devote there entire waking lives into starting businesses and fail.
Louis will just sit there swinging in his office chair like the ass-burgers retard he is saying its their own fault for being negative or some shit.
I feel sorry for him, yet a the same time if I met him in real life, I would fucking hate to be sat in the same room as him.
>>55366310
What exactly was he doing that was illegal?
>>55366292
You got no idea of the logistics of what you're suggesting, it would be far cheaper to use a new board
>>55366336
>all this rage
Someone made you angry just by existing. This person manipulated your mental state and forced you to be in a less desirable mental position. How does that make you feel? Do you feel scared? Violated? I'm Louis Rossmann, stay tuned for this quick and easy solution to feeling depressed about the way other people make you feel.
>>55366336
>I've no doubt he worked hard to get where he got to, but you'll always need the element of luck
"Luck" is a factor of probability and putting yourself in the right place at the right time. If you keep attempting success, you are statistically very likely to reach it. You are implying that failure is an absolute dead end. It's not.
>>55366336
>can't get rich like me
Louis isn't rich.
>>55366366 see >>55366224
>unauthorized repairs are now illegal
The only way to get the masses to understand why this is bad is to make a car analogy.
>What if the auto industry decided that it should be illegal to take your car anywhere but your dealership to get a repair?
Even someone who takes their car to the dealership every time can appreciate having the choice to take it somewhere else.
I don't really like Louis's personality but it's not like you have to suck someone's dick in order to agree with a specific viewpoint.
>>55366336
>He's an absolute self righteous prick who think "I'm from a poor family, if anyone else from a poor family can't get rich like me they deserve their shit life". This is pretty much what he says in most of his videos.
That's not what he's saying, it's what you're hearing.
>>55366442
So his youtube videos had schematics in them, that he was not authorized to share?
>>55366462
Pretty much. If they're gonna get him for anything, they're gonna get him for distributing schematics.
>>55366479
"Distributing", kek. He had portions of schematics on screen during v-logged repairs, and some of them happened to include watermarks for the site where he got them. That's like saying you're distributing pirated music by uploading gameplay vids of Guitar Hero
ofc the legal system in this country is completely fucked so it's not like that matters
>>55366462
This is all speculation there are no known facts yet.
He had schematics for Mac products you can see it in his video where he says he "got them from Google" he also had a diagnosis software tool.
IF Apple claims copyright over things like schematics and their diagnostics software. Then it becomes a simple copyright infringement case, where Apple can claim his copyright infringement would cost Apple X dollars for each repair he did.
He could settle the case and pay up, he can go to court and win or lose, depending on the judge and jury.
Repairs are not illegal, it's like you're fixing a VW Beatle right and you go to google and find volkswagens technical manual they use at the plant, that is not for public consumption, then you begin fixing vw Beatles for money, not illegal. Your possession of those tech manuals is, because they didn't license them to you.
>>55366446
Did you see the video where spent 20 mins berating a guy from an shithole eastern European country who had the audacity to say "You have it easy in America I have spent a year saving up for my microscope that you are using it's hard for some people in poorer places".
20 fucking minutes telling that guy he's a negative piece of shit, that he knows a guy from an Eastern European country and he sorted his life out buy moving to America.
That's his world solving problem, ever starving child in Ethiopia should move to America or it's their own fault they're dying. (in a nutshell).
>>55366533
inb4 reddit crowdfunds his legal fees
>>55366538
I did watch that and you missed his point.
>>55366538
not an argument
>>55363042
>violation of copyright and trade secrets
The law is in favour of Apple, you like it or not.
>more chance of industrial espionage other developers to start shipping "OSX compatible" motherboards
I doubt that happens really, but will be a nice consequence
>money lost
I doubt that this annoying son of bitch will even make a dent to Apple profits. But at least tries, and not in a way Apple likes.
>lost of control
The sum of all above.
>>55363747
>mac shouldn't have issues
KEK.
>>55363156
just fucking use headphones..
/g/ made him famous by spreading his thinkpad is better than macbook video
>>55366173
Are you new?
>>55366603
even if one made a perfect hardware clone they'd still be missing all the firmware
>>55363156
its called acoustic treatment you fucking dumbass
>>55366652
Yes. But will be more easy to hackitoshers to do shit.
Again, this is a remote posibility. The real issue for Apple is the fact that someone outside of Apple and Foxconn has the diagrams of their motherboards.
>>55363156
he has a chair for his cat and that is adorable
I want a chair for my cat
>>55366681
They won't stop the spread of schematics by crushing Louis. They'd have to make their own manufacturing plants in the US to stop Foxconn from reselling them.
>>55366681
>The real issue for Apple is the fact that someone outside of Apple and Foxconn has the diagrams of their motherboards.
How. It takes yuge effort and investment to make a mobos. So I wouldn't worry about apple
>>55366736
Lost of control.
That's it.
Apple can't control it, Apple must destroy it.
>>55366736
corporations don't like stuff they can't control even if it's something as petty as this
>>55366336
This, if he was black or brown no way he'd have gotten where he is now, no fucking way. People would simply not trust their stuff to him.
>>55365965
mentally ill? wtf do you even know what that means? people with jobs, homes, their own business that manage to wake up, feed themselves, their cats, go to work, and deal with faggots all day do not quality. fuck off.
He pirated software worth like gorillon tons of gold, and now is surprised apple is suing him after busting about it on his videos?
I like the dude, but he should have never mentioned the pirated software not actually show the chinese website were he was getting it.
TL;DR No matter how much we like him, he asked for it.
>>55367040
>muh racism
Fuck off.
>>55367063
what's the name of the software?
>>55367091
Apple Repair Magic Pro
>>55367091
It's apple in house diagnostic tool.
He isn't getting sued for repairing, like everyone in this thread is saying, he is getting sued for using pirated software that only authorized stores should have, but he got it from a Chinese website and have boosted about it for several years and few videos ago he recorded when he was downloading it.
>>55367063
What software? Link?
>>55367054
you replied to the wrong comment, m8
>>55367117
can i have the vid of him making a vid of him downloading it with commentary lol
>>55367135
Is the "grandma comes to repair an iphone" or something in the lines.
>>55367144
No link? So it doesn't exist?
Nice.
>>55367117
>he is getting sued for using pirated software that only authorized stores should have
And where is the evidence on this?
>>55367151
I told you the fucking tittle and he uploaded it like a week ago, fucking lazy fuck.
>>55367177
Do you guys watch this guy videos at all? he mentions that he pirated the software and schematics in almost all the actual repair videos.
For fuck sake, in the video I mentioned the first fucking words he said are:
"Take one trying to download the schematics" then pic related.
>>55367117
He goes on about not having access to the in house diagnostics, never seen him use it. All I've seen is the sketchy schematics and board views.
>>55367054
People with mental health issues can have jobs, homes, cats and believe it or not can actually wake up in the morning.
Mental heath problems don't mean you lie in bed drooling and chronicly masterbating. Half of /g/ whould qualify for that.
Louis Rossmann, without a shadow of a doubt is a sperg.
>>55364101
Dealerships jew hard on the price but at least they know what they're doing, usually.
Independents there's like a 90% chance it's some retard out of highschool who couldn't change a bicycle tire.
>>55367200
Those are schematics/board views, different from diagnostic software.
>>55367117
>recorded when he was downloading it.
that's what he was fucking doing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eywKrRUOPvM

Of courshe.
>>55367237
those tits
>>55366538
Eastern European nations are shit because they still haven't fully recovered from communism.
>gibs me dat government, i sit around and wait for good things to happen
Ethiopia is a shithole because Africans have low IQ, are violent, and will have as many babies as possible even though they can't afford them.
the guy from east europe could be relatively successful, for his own country, but obviously he'd never make as much unless he moved to the US where he has access to other people who work hard too.
>>55367220
I'm not argue about this, you obviously don't watch his videos, hell I doubt anyone in this thread actually have watched more than 3 of his videos.
He pirated and talked about it on several videos, now those videos are his doom.
>>55367213
>shadow of a doubt is a sperg
internet psychologist everyone.
>>55367278
Feel free to link to something that isn't just usage or reference to boardviews and schematics
>>55367255
desu
She's oddly hot
>>55367278
>He pirated and talked about it on several videos
fell for the proprietary software meme
louis needs to start a hardware company at this point.
>>55367296
"Images" are subject to copyright laws.
He has no permission to own those schematics, he got them from illegal sources aka he pirated them, now go fuck your self dense fuck.
So he dled a program and posted some pics of schematics image copyrighted by apple. big whoop
>>55367327
Nah! he will have to move to repair automatic masturbators for $5 bucks each, but first he will need to move from his huge and expensive apartment to the ghetto/commie blocks.
I just got home
did he kill himself yet?
>>55367343
You don't have permissions to your anime, music, and tons of either stuff on your pc either.
>>55367283
As opposed to Louis, who in one of his many full of shit (I know every thing) videos claims anyone who has a good life can't get clinically depressed. He calls it "fake" depression.
Because you have a job, an income a place to live and family you can't be depressed. His own words. This guy is a fucking idiot.
>>55367378
Do you see me making videos and uploading them to the internet while talking shit about those who produced those lewd Chinese cartoons and boosting about pirating them?
>>55367384
And this comes from someone with STEM parents.
I would bet my anus virginity to the above statement.
>>55367395
tons of people on youtube do that already
