If you have the right, and the ability, to fix a piece of equipment, it becomes much harder, if not impossible, for the manufacturer to hide things in it that do not need to be there. If you can open a device, and know what every component in it does, you will know which parts of it are only there for a nefarious purpose, such as spying on you, or cripple the device to force you to buy a new one or upgrade.
