Anti-Tamper Security Screws RANT right to repair

[@NicksStuff]

I don't like these but you can at least unscrew them and they serve as an indication the stuff behind is dangerous. The ones I absolutely hate are the one-way screws or clutch screws. When they're recessed, the only way to remove these is to *drill* them

[@MrBobWareham]

I am with you Anti tamper and glue, it's sad it should all be repairable like it used to be

[@SouthAfricanJuanita]

Thanks, you are spot on, they don't want us to fix, but buy more

[@docsspot]

"Item not servicable, challenge accepted", AWESOME. I agree with everything you said, and not limited to tamperproof hardware

[@MyProjectBoxChannel]

YOU KNOW IT!😉👍

I had an 89 4 cylinder Mustang and I needed to do something to the ignition switch. It had anti tamper with star screws. I bought the tool about a year before I had the problem.

Useful tip regarding the drill and the Philips screw. Thanks

[@petergreenan9178]

They now use them on car engines. Must cut out old or make a tool for each size. So sad.

2:25 yup 😓😭 I feel it and I don't have any solution

We have a few LED nightlights that have the pesky triangle screws and the LEDs only lasted about a year before getting very dim. From a quick search I found that small Torx screw drivers can open triangle screws, however, after opening one, the second one damaged my T5 Torx head, so ended up getting a triangle head set rather than have more eWaste buying new nightlights.

Oh God yes. Torx and hex is okay but anything weirder than that should be banned. I particularly hate the triangle one. Whoever invented that is a misanthropist.

[@MyProjectBoxChannel]

YES🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣! And Torx Is just an evolutionary improvement over Phillips so it makes sense😉. The rest of them have just been created to torture us.😝🤔

Had to unfucker a triangle "anti right-to-repair" security fuckbit just yesterday. If you have one of those little Swedish file sets, there is a triangular file in there that fits perfectly. Bleeping communist corporate America scuzzy slimbuckets.

[@danishdart]

@@mevk1 unfortunately I don't. I think I ground an unwanted hex key into a triangle and used that but that was 15 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Corporate slime buckets indeed.

[@MyProjectBoxChannel]

@@mevk1 🤣🤣 That's a good trick😉

[@Flecha57]

Man, thanks for your rant. I'm with you. Thanks for the tip. I would have never figured it out. 🤣

[@chiquisbaby81]

I hate it that I bought a pricey bit set thinking I had “all of them” until I saw this video. Male Phillips? 🤔🙆🏻‍♂️😡🤦🏻‍♂️🪛

[@BSOE3058]

anti-tamper screw aren't half bad as break-off

[@MyProjectBoxChannel]

Snap-off bolts/screws are good for security but terribly annoying.

[@tompas11A3n52KkX]

Sweet!

[@alanwilkinson9487]

They don't want u to repair it😮

[@craigevett1693]

Love it 👍 😂

[@mrflibble5311]

I agree , they're a pest. I've never seen a male Philips head screw before . Could be a minefield with the pronouns there 😀
