iFixit wants Congress to let it hack McDonald’s ice cream machines

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I don't think it's quite that devious. That kind of "feature" would probably be racketeering and ripe for lawsuit. I think it's more that the machines are temperamental as fuck and the methods to fix the machines are kept under a very tight lid.
Yeah, an incorrect cleaning procedure can cause a error that requires maintenance personnel to reset the error. They don't need to do anything else though, it's completely fine to just do the cleaning again. Stuff like that.
Yeah, sounds more like a feature of cheap ice cream machines than malicious intent.
