Fuck ownership, you have only implied license to operate your dick

    @Vitaliy_Kiselev - Not really a surprising outcome. Much like the GH1 and GH2, these companies think no one will be able to open up their software--so they are slow to push out useful updates and further development. Then the users take control and improve things. ...Of course eventually, the manufacturers just encrypt the firmware.

    Do you have a link to the article about farmers hacking their firmware? Very interesting to me. Believe it or not, we have a farm that's been in our family for 100+ years.

    Development of same story.

    Now farmers and owners of this JD shit buy hacked firmware for their stuff that allows to bypass restrictions as well as tune main parameters.

    Sounds like a good story line for a film. Doc would be more powerful than narrative. Farmer gets his tractor fixed somewhere else, the sheriff's deputy arrives to arrest him and all hell breaks loose.

    So, present situation.

    For 3 years farmers could repair their tractors. But only themselves, any intervention by anyone else, even their neighbor, will be considered criminal offense.

    And this is yet another reason why "IP" is just a stack of so much nonsense.

    I'll make some posts soon not related to cameras about IP and copies :-)

    It will be much more easy to understand that happens if you just think that copyright laws and patent laws had been written by ruling class to defend their interests. And as you start to hear about poor inventor or guy with guitar being ripped - slap yourself on the face to wake up.

    Not to appear too cynical but I think we are so far beyond the point of any sollutions, we might as well come to terms with who's really running the world, and the simple answer is follow the money!!

    Solutions?

    I would probably change all the logos on my JD to Case or New Holland on the first day of ownership

    Do not worry, JD drone will spot your extremist activities and you will be prosecuted :-)

    Agreed VK. Problem is not that they move to license/outright buy- problem is that they ask for too much cash.

    People want/need cash in 2015. Advertising- buzz- excitement- all out the window: cash is king.

    Maybe we simply need to re-educate ourselves on the concept of ownership. Maybe nothing is really owned by anyone. We can't take things with us when we die- so ownership should reflect this.

    Yep, everything we own is just temporary rented :-) Btw, this also show why organizations have so much power compared to small entries as individuals or families. As they are able accumulate resources for long time.

    But it does not change the fact that this motherfuckers just want your money (and as much as they can get).

Leasing/borrowing is closer to reality. I don't think we ever have owned anything really- and now companies are breaking truth to us. This is the real world Neo.

    Also interview them about who own the seeds they use, as Monsanto also has very interesting terms.

  • johnnymossvillejohnnymossville

    I'd love to interview a couple dozen farmers who own JD's to give their opinion about who owns their tractor. That would make for great watching.

    Perhaps this is yet another reason not to use penile implants. No doubt you will lose sovereignty of your junk.
