It'd be even better if you didn't use K-Cups or even if those K-Cups were recyclable. "In 2013, Keurig Green Mountain produced 8.3 billion K-Cups — enough to circle the Earth 10.5 times. (In 2014, output shot up to 9.8 billion portion packs.)" source

This is an unrelated environmental issue, but since we're on the general topic of protecting our rights and justice, let's avoid perpetuating other injustices while we're at it. Both battles are related in that both problems stem from corporate entities so busy trying to make as much money as possible that they disregard the significance of the negative impact their actions have.

EDIT: The Keurig machines can remain in use - instead of throwing out the whole system, we can replace the k-cups with re-usable filters (such as those offered by a company called Ekobrew). Saves money and coffee can be poured into them for each use.

What are the counter-arguments (i.e. those used to defend the opposition's point)? Who exactly are manipulating the legal system to make repairs, jailbreaking, etc., illegal?

I'd simply like to be better informed. It's also important, I think, to know what one is up against. Sources to any information would be appreciated.

Additionally, cell phone carriers have been using measures to disable authentication on known stolen phones via the IMEI and other such unique identifiers. The argument isn't very strong on their part because of this.

I assume it's an attempt to be funny. Humor garners more attention and upvotes.

Thank you, I'll have to take a look at the page you linked to. I hope many others do as well.
