It truly bothers us and troubles us to see how the media was spinning DRM in tractors, portraying the whole thing as benign if not benevolent just because in one particular case — involving a stock of tractors (not even so many of them!) — it harmed Russia. As if Russia will turn back and end the war (a surrender by Putin is highly improbable […]) — all this because of some bricked tractors… one might argue that bricking them would generally contribute to more hunger if not famine, seeing the already-diminishing supplies of wheat and cooking oils (amongst other basic commodities).
Funny, I remember many a reddit post complaining about those things a few years back, listing the predatory practices of the likes of John Deere. But now that it’s “correct target” it is suddenly okay.
