FTC finally investigates John Deere's creepy repair restriction scheme
Deere caught in headlights — the US Federal Trade Commission is finally investigating farm equipment giant John Deere over its questionable repair policies. The company has made a habit of making it extremely difficult to outright impossible for its customers to repair the Deere products that they themselves own. This infringement on a customer's right to repair is now being scrutinized by the guys in charge. Oh happy day!
