Last week, we won the biggest Right to Repair lawsuit in a long time. A $99 million settlement. Access to repair tools. Headlines everywhere calling it a victory. But pull back the curtain and the story gets a lot darker. Because the access we won has a timer on it. The money doesn't go where you think it does. And two weeks before the settlement dropped, John Deere was standing on the White House lawn being celebrated as a partner in farmer freedom. This is the story of how a decade-long repair monopoly ended — and why the people who built it got to decide what winning looked like.
