Incidents
Lack of Consumer Support and Legal Threats
In January 2025, Oregon passed a state Right to Repair law, banning part pairing, and requiring manufacturers to allow consumers to choose to self-repair devices, or use a third-party service by requiring that repair documentation, tools, and parts be made available.[2][3]
YouTuber and repair technician Steven Rhine buys a secondhand CableEye M3U from eBay, but due to poor packaging, the switch gets damaged in transit.[4] He sends an email to CAMI, requesting that they sell a part to him, so he can repair the device. The company representatives refuses Rhine's request, citing concerns about profit.[5]
In response, Rhine filed a complaint with the Oregon Department of Justice. The Department acknowledged the complaint, but closed the case without any further action, citing that the issue was outside their authority.[5]
CAMI Research responded by threatening legal action against Rhine, accusing him of harassment, despite the communications being professional and polite. Their message asserted that Ryan should go through state legal channels only, and threatened to escalate the situation if he made further contact with them.[5]
