- Create right to replica laws: so for example, Gibson occasionally reissues 50s les pauls. So if you want a 1960s thunderbird, Ford has to remake them every so often.

Lol what?

What items are considered "replica-required" and which are not? Would a limited edition 80s David Hasselhoff dildo (made from a mold of his penis) count? Would a blackface Jynx Pokemon toy / plushie from the mid-90s count? Why or why not? Who decides what qualifies and what does not qualify? How would this work in practice, AT ALL?

This probably sounds snarky and rhetorical, but on the contrary, I'm actually asking you.

I feel "right to replica" laws would stop the idea of planned obsolescence, which i find to be a form of fraud

Okay but what are the parameters here and how does this actually work in real life? If it can't work or partially work IRL then it shouldn't be part of a government plan.
