Topic	Farmers have to hack their tractors because of strict repair restrictions
FLUFFYGERM 02/02/18 11:35:25 AM #22:	Anarchy_Juiblex posted... Right to repair is stupid. You already have the right to do whatever you want with your properly (obvious exceptions are obvious) The "right issue" here, is whether companies have to uphold their warranties after said repairs. And I'm quite sympathetic to the idea that if I develop a product, and some idiot tinkers with it, I don't have to stand behind it. So you don't think it's wrong for companies to install software on vehicles that will not accept a replacement part unless it's installed by a dealer who has access to software that can digitally sign the replacement part? --- proudclad LAYIN DOWN THE SMACK - Error1355 <cite>FLUFFYGERM posted [p:895311692] in Farmers ha...
