A better link, one that's not blocked in European countries:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-20/deere-sui...




I had looked for that one, because that was what got syndicated in the little local farmer paper in which I first saw this. However, after 5 minutes in DDG I just took the top result that mentioned that Deere is alleging infringement for work done by a firm it had previously attempted to purchase. I thought that was a notable detail...


Thanks for that, it's also blocked in South Africa, which is pretty damn far from Europe. I suspect they just block anything non-NA.


Why is it blocked in European countries?


Because they don't understand how GDPR applies to them, or they don't want to respect their users' privacy.
