A key part of his argument is that these laws should be repealed so that small companies could legally develop hacks and alternatives. For example a startup could develop (and support) an alternative firmware for John Deere tractors, which they sell to independent tractor repair shops around the world, creating more competition, more options, and cheaper/better services to end users. The “for personal use” version of that is fine for us hobbyists, but prevents similar freedoms from being accessible to regular people.

We should emphasize the John Deere tractor thing to reach a broader audience.
