They were never coming back anyway until WEF and DC can install another Yeltsin clone who will let the run wild. And thank goodness America respects private businesses. You know, liek ordering everything nationwide to close for a year, for forbidding evictions for non-payment, etc.
Also Elon Musk got on their bad side. FAA got after him, SEC is after him, DOT NTSB started investigating when his cars wreck etc...
Also confiscating 650 billion in cash and gold they had in our banks on the whim of our dictator is not “capitalist”.

Please stop pretending we are capitalist and that they are not.

They already have some John Deere tractors and harvesters (fresh from a Ukrainian dealership!) that will never work.

(John Deere disabled the software that runs the machinery after the Ukes reported that the Russians had stolen them and shipped them back to Russia.)

Big Brother inc.

Don’t think what John Deere did to Russia they won’t do to us political deplorables someday.

I believe that would only work if the tractor is exposed long enough to WiFi. Do many russian farms have extended WiFi or even WiFi at all?

I would imagine that the software has a security check when someone tries to start the machine that works something like this. If the machine has never been started the software contacts John Deere via WiFi and asks for a permanent key. If no response is received the software does not allow the machine to start. If John Deere hears the request it checks to see if the request is legitimate. If the machine was reported stolen then a special pattern is sent that causes the software to erase critical parts of the program.

If the request is legitimate a permanent key is sent and stored on the machine. Once the permanent key is on the machine, when the user tries to start the machine a message is sent to John Deere via WiFi and John Deere responds with a pattern which when combined with the permanent key enables the software to start the machine.

If the permanent key is installed and the machine is subsequently reported as stolen, the pattern sent can be the 'kill' key for the software.

If the John Deere website is down you may be out of luck.

But this might be something like what the manufacturer would implement to take care of machinery security.
