A BILL FOR AN ACT
This is a proposed consumer-protection bill from Hawaii’s Thirty-Third Legislature (2026), submitted as HB1644 (HD1). The text indicates it is “relating to consumer protection,” which commonly can include rules affecting warranties, deceptive sales practices, and sometimes consumer financial/insurance-like protections tied to product protection plans.
If enacted (or even if advanced), a consumer-protection bill could change how AppleCare+ (as a device protection plan) must be marketed, disclosed, or administered—especially around warranty/repair obligations, pricing and refund terms, claim handling, and any requirements that certain protection offerings be treated like insurance or carry specific disclosures. The specific impact depends on the bill’s actual provisions in the PDF (e.g., whether it regulates service contracts/warranty-like products, limitations of liability, or insurer/administrator licensing).
