These were all John Deere tractors though - aren't they a U.S. company?
Has our tractor-based national security been outsourced to the U.S. too?
Shameful.

Ironically tractors in the US especially have a massive problem with security/encryption at the moment because the manufacturers lock down the on board computers which make it impossible for people to service themselves and it's going through the courts at the moment about whether you actually own the software in the thing you've bought.

Apparently tractors are a vital tool in strong and stable national security. They are also important in breaking cryptography, which is only used by those seeking to undermine our values.
