Outdated and unpatched does not mean easy RCEs.

Let’s imagine you compromise a telco and get past the hurdle of these tractors not having public IPs, they probably still won’t have any services listening on the network.

If they do have some services listening on the network, that’s probably going to be John Deere’s own software and not e.g. an ancient version of Exim.

Without more information this is just silly clickbait.

Good points. I'm only mad about the anti repair practices and lobbying.
