Using DRM for Good 

It’s still evil, but at least there’s a silver lining.

While “DRM” generally stands for “digital rights management”, the term covers more than just technologies that limit access to digital content like movies and music. In recent years, DRM has been creeping into more and more physical products, like printers and tractors. Generally, that’s a very bad thing. However, in the case of farm equipment stolen from Ukraine by Russian troops, the DRM is providing at least some good, by disabling the vehicles remotely.
