Russians plunder $5M farm vehicles from Ukraine – to find they’ve been remotely disabled

Nothing locks up like a stolen $300,000 John Deere combine shipped by Russian invaders to Chechnya.

What would be best would be if these stolen vehicles could go on some sort of Killdozer rampage. Or just burn themselves up. But turning themselves into bricks is a nice start. Sure, the thieves will simply take them to a chop shop and make some money on the spare parts (something Russian farmers are going to need since doubtless John Deere customer support is likely thin on the ground in Russia these days), but they won’t do near as well as if they’d had functional equipment.

Maybe don’t steal things.
