trump will overturn that bullshyt on day 1, with the same authority biden is supposedly using to put it in place :dead:

this thread should be bushed and locked. a fitting end to the worst presidential legacy i've ever seen

Just telling on yourself with presenting the idea that Dems should make choices based on what Repubs end up doing. :ehh:

no, i'm simply pointing out the fact that biden using executive power to do this his last week in office, will be overturned by the next guy in office, so the move is meaningless

New: The FTC has formally sued John Deere over its tractor repair monopoly, which is the strongest punitive action the federal government has ever taken against a company over restricting right to repair

This is the last few days of the Biden administration so who knows what happens. Many Republicans are furious over Deere's repair monopoly too. Also notable that Minnesota and Illinois are also suing, so it's not a given that this will go away under Trump. Very notable

Deere is *also* still fighting a major class-action lawsuit from consumers over this, which the DOJ previously weighed in on and are supporting. I wrote more about that here: The Walls Are Closing in on John Deere’s Tractor Repair Monopoly

There are also other things that have been happening that I haven't written about or had time to follow that closely:

1) National Defense Authorization bill talks about repairability re: Military, which relates in part to Deere:

The EPA forced Deere to revise its manuals to stress repair. EPA also looking into Deere & repairability more broadly:

John Deere added repair language to manuals to meet EPA requirements, documents show

Sen. Elizabeth Warren has an open inquiry into its repair practices, and the undermining of a voluntary agreement Deere entered into re: repairability

Warren Says John Deere Undermining ‘Right-to-Repair’ Agreements

To sum up, Deere is currently facing legal action or pressure regarding its repair monopolies from:

- Consumers
- FTC
- DoJ
- Military
- Congress
- EPA
- Illinois
- Minnesota

- Numerous other states re: right to repair legislation

The actual lawsuit just dropped, which is available here:

https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/DeereCoREDACTEDComplaintCaseNo325-cv-50017.pdf

Really interesting stuff in here. FTC is going after Deere in part bc the repair software it offers to the public is degraded from the one Deere & dealers have, can't diagnose all problems, costs >$3k per year
