It had been in the works for a while, but now it has formally been adopted. From the article:

The regulation provides that by 2027 portable batteries incorporated into appliances should be removable and replaceable by the end-user, leaving sufficient time for operators to adapt the design of their products to this requirement.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/shorts/DZhfH6Hn1tM?feature=share

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

... so this bot is an ad?

e: weird getting downvoted for asking a question.

Lemmy has a very foss focused privacy focused community and this is a bot which responds to YouTube links ( not privacy respecting ) with piped links ( privacy respecting ) so the people who don't want to open YouTube due to said privacy concerns do not have to open YouTube. Similar to the reddit bots that would respond to amp links with the actual link.
