I don't think people should accept it, but I'm not hugely convinced that it should be enforced by the government.
Assume that John Deere has good analytics about the things that impact the TCO of these super tractors. Assume that some sensors are very effective at lowering that TCO. Assume that John Deere puts interlocks into the vehicle and prices it competitively based on the calculated assumption that those interlocks will lower their warranty costs.
Why should I have to pay extra so that you can have the freedom to hack your tractor?
