Apple is letting some iPhone users fix their own phones, a sharp turnaround for a company that has long guarded its software in a walled garden that only Apple-approved technicians can unlock. The company said Wednesday, Nov. 27, 2021, it will enable users of two of the newest iPhone models and later some Mac computers to get access to genuine Apple parts and tools to be able to repair them.

(McKees Rocks, PA) Congressman Chris Deluzio is supporting policies that go against using phones in school districts. Deluzio sent letters to the 59 school districts in the 17th Congressional District to inquire if they are developing a ban for smartphones or have one already. One school that got rid of phones in the classroom until the end of its school days is Sto-Rox Junior and Senior High School. Pennsylvania does not have a policy to limit or ban phones or smartphones in the classroom.
