    There are lots of loyal green customers who are really pissed about the ability to not be able to repair their own stuff, but yet keep buying it. (Similar to a lot of iPhone users)

      but yet keep buying it.

      Probably because they’ll keep repairing it themselves anyway. Making it legal would just make it easier for them to repair it without triggering the tractor’s version of DRM (can’t remember what it’s called).

        That is getting really hard to do. Seems like someone could make a market in controllers that replace the factory ones but hook to the factory sensors.
