Sick Codes has jailbroken a John Deere, and this is just the beginning. Turns out our entire food system is built on outdated, unpatched Linux and Windows CE hardware with LTE modems. 
John Deere has repeatedly told regulators that farmers can't be trusted to repair their own equipment. This foundational work will pave the path for farmers to retake control of the equipment that they own. #RightToRepair
And yes, that is corn-themed Doom running on a John Deere touchscreen. @sickcodes really went all out for this. You can harvest corn to raise your health or go hunt down the piggies!
As we start to understand how John Deere built this, people are raising some very real concerns about GPL compliance. Deere has built a very profitable empire on the backs of open source software. Where are their contributions back to the community?
The hard work to restore our Right to Repair is being championed by @RepairCoalition and @securepairs, and we could really use your help taking this to the next level.
The amazing ag Doom mod complete with Corn Slaughtering Simulator 2000 is the work of the very talented @Skelegant.
