If you read that John Deere article, their specific quote is actually that you don&#x27;t <i>own</i> the <i>vehicle</i> itself:<p><pre><code>    ... an implied license for the life of the 
    vehicle to operate the vehicle
</code></pre>
And fundamentally then, I think that I disagree with that particular view of ownership. I think my views align well with those declared by the EFF, in that I believe you should be allowed to tinker with <i>your stuff</i>.
