AGCO, one of the biggest American makers of agricultural machines, was hit in a cyber attack and production will be down for days or longer.

There already are supply issues with food and this is a key time of year for them.

Could it be Russia? Does anyone think Biden can help Ukraine sink the Moskova and Russia will sit idly by? Perhaps, or even if yes, not a guarantee they did this.

Russian hackers did ransomware attacks across every sector of the economy for years before Putin decided to rape Ukraine. Let's not get afraid of shadows.

That's a nice euphemism for "looted by invading enemies".

Its also possible to 'bypass' those remote lockouts too, (if you know what your doing), with a laptop, these lockouts can be bypassed and/or defeated.

John Deere is pretty insistent they can brick their equipment completely. I very much hate the idea, but as it's being used against thieving Russians, I'm forced to admit that it has a use.
