A U.S. judge on Monday said Deere & Co must face claims from crop farms and farmers that the agricultural machinery maker has unlawfully conspired to restrict services for maintenance and repair.
Keurig tried to QR code all of their pods so third party ones wouldn’t work. Super simple hacks were quickly released. It was in the name of “consumer safety” or some shit like that.
When this originally happened, some guy 3D printed a plastic cap hack for the machines and was sending them to people for as close to free as he could. (I think it was a clip-on thing for the machine, not for each pod. I tried to look for it again, but it looks like most people preferred the per-pod hacks.)
It was a glorious “fuck you!” to Keurig regardless of how it was hacked.

Hug that person for me. Never tell people/the Internet what to do, they’ll always do the opposite and win.
