I agree on this completely.

To be honest, what you say, might not even go far enough though...

All hardware should always be by default usable without any proprietary crap if that is their choice.
Planned obsolence should be illegal as well and most of all, copyright for electronics should have a set limit of 20 years that cannot be extended and even then, you should be able to modify your hardware distribute patches, as long as you don't charge a fee for it.
