You'll find magically all HR software automatically removes applications. Who are you going to audit? The HR AI program? Hah. If there was competition in the US this wouldn't happen.

Confiscate all money and assets from any person or corporation that exceeds 100 million in value, redistribute all of it equally to every citizen by SSN. The billionaires always claim they can make it back anyway because they are so much better than everyone else.

Howdy! I work with Open Source™, and unfortunately, it will not help. Initially, there will be openness; but it always ends up devolving into a fork-fight with an open-core-going-closed model. It's not the license's fault, as it only kicks in for the briefest of moments during the transfer/act of copying. Once that's over with, the license vanishes into a poof of smoke, and all you have remaining is "No warranty expressed or implied." Not saying proprietary software is any better -- but what we actually need goes beyond just API and ABI, but into proper open-access, published, international specifications definition via a standards body like IEEE. The Standards Track process is what has kept the internet from falling apart into a lawless graveyard of geocities clones. Open source™ has it's place in protecting consumer rights; but until the license obligations are actually tested in a courtroom and result in a snowballing of case records that can be applied to other courtroom brawls, it's teeth are blunted. FOSS brings freedom, both libre and gratis, but that gratis part is the most problematic if nobody wants to scratch the itch without getting paid for it.

When they go to hire personal staff like a driver, the drivers refuse because they take a risk of being found out to help this scumbag and then also get poor treatment by people. The problem is we live in an international world and so someone can always avoid this kind of social justice because they don't live in one place with the same people anymore.

As a 5th gen farmer, we run kubotas. Its a Japanese tractor, and they will sell us anything we need to fix the tractor. That green paint is 60% more expensive for the parts for equipment that operates the same. When the dealer is willing to help you stay in bussines, you buy more equipment from them.

Good to know not everyone is using John Deere. I am no farmer so I had to look up the statistics for my country of Sweden. It seems the Finish brand Valtra that bought up Volvo’s tractor division in the 80s used to be the biggest but John Deere is now the biggest with 27% of the market. Valtra is now second and after that it’s Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Fendt, Case IH, Claas, while Kubota is only at eight place. After that it’s Lovol, Deutz-Fahr, Branson, Zetor, McCormick so at least there seems to be plenty of choices for farmers. As a non farmer I’ve honestly never heard of anything but John Deere though except for Volvo BM that doesn’t exist anymore and Ford that also don’t seem to make tractors anymore. The only tractor I’ve ever driven was a Ford that a small farmer close to my grandpas house had and let me try.

As a farmer myself (we run mostly CaseIH equipment but also some Deere) I don't think the dealer himself was meaning anything malicious, and I doubt Deere corporate sent anything out to the dealers about the aftermarket receiver. He was just expressing what he was expecting to happen, which is unfortunately how it has been in the ag industry for a while now. At the end of the day though, you should still be able to use aftermarket electronics if such products exist, just like in cars or other industries. I'm hopeful that this aftermarket receiver is able to continue to have success and show that.

I agree, but it's about as likely to happen as abolishing "intellectual" property rights, which is what really needs to happen, because it violates your actual property rights. Anyone should be able to make and sell anything if they own the materials to do so. Everything is built off existing technologies, and from basic physics, there is always a most efficient way to do something. If u can "own" the most efficient way of doing something, then u have an effective monopoly. Inventions are in essence discoveries, and discoveries belong to everyone. Corporations shouldn't be able to "own" a tool design, a plan, a schematic, or a collection of ones and zeros. The idea that u can own an idea is an idea that noone should possess.

@@Poldovico That's implying corporations have ethics and morals. they don't. The only thing their competitors are doing regarding this is trying to see how they can do the same exact shit WITHOUT getting caught. They've all seen how lucrative this business model is since video gaming went down this same path 15 years ago and nobody fought it, cat's out of the bag as it were, it's only a matter of time. Car companies, too. BMW, Tesla, Toyota already experimenting with it. Detroit, Bavaria, Tokyo are all watching VERY CLOSELY at how JD gets through this backlash because they've already laid the foundations, built the walls, wired everything, and are sitting there ready to flip the switch on the worst monetization scheme to ever happen to physical goods.
