Last week a story appeared online about lawyers at John Deere saying (and I'm paraphrasing here) you may own MOST of your tractor, but you don't own the software code that the tractor needs to run - so you don't own all of it.

Well (and I knew this would get straightened out), according to Brownfield Ag News, Barry Nelson, the media relations director at John Deere says, you own the whole tractor, but  "we don’t want just anybody to be able to go in there and hack the computer code.”

Like you have time to go in and "hack" your John Deere tractor.
