Framework only sells in the west and the west (and 1st world/highly developed countries/regions outside of the west) account for pretty much all high end laptop sales - your diatribe doesn't really hold up even so though. The modularity of the framework means less ewaste than the status quo - that is a net positive.

Again, youi are missing the forest for the trees - when you sell old laptop on ebay, where does it go? When you get rid of the laptop and give it to recycling, where does it go?

It goes to a second or third world country, where they will try to repair and use it if possible.

Very few institutions in the west actually recycle anything.
