A good example of an amazing tech hampered by the capitalist system, and very good argument for open source and right to repair.

It should be mandatory for company to provide support for the lifetime of the implanted device. If they kick the bucket (the company, not the patient), mandatory open source. It's not like the patent matters anymore once the company's dead, right?

I would add that everything that goes in the body should be open source and open hardware.
