[QUOTE="rocfarm, post: 1840815, member: 42715"] Well, the county does come to count your cows in Texas to make sure you can keep your ag exemption. I don't really have a problem with that. But they don't keep constant track. Are there any corn farmers out there? Doesn't John Deere have a system now where you pay a subscription, install a GPS/Internet device, and the tractor uploads all of your corn harvest acre-by-acre to the company? Here's an article. It says that Deere has a right to turn your tracking back on, even if you turn it off. [URL unfurl="true"]https://communicationsdaily.com/news/2021/09/20/ftc-investigator-meets-with-farmers-on-deere-data-privacy-2109170033[/URL] They've already taken away the farmer's right to repair. Is Deere also selling your harvest data to the commodities traders? Again [USER=19817]@chevytaHOE5674[/USER], you are probably right about the situation as it is now. But we're silly to think that the data collection will stop there. And the AI will also come in at some point and allow them to calculate way more information about your operation than you actually give, as well. It will not be good for the small producer. Insist on safety, freedom, and privacy, not just safety. We are more than hard-working enough to do all three. And that is the best for ALL Americans. [/QUOTE]
