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.

Behold the Holy Sticker. Thou shall not remove It for thou art a mere mortal. It keeps secrets way above thy primitive perception, for it's a domain of certified wizards, proprietary witchcraft and manuals on applied necromancy.

I bless thou. And I approve thy use of knee-cappers against these sticker-snatchers. You are to collect their kneecaps in the name of God. Be blessed, u/QuazarOmega. Be blessed.
