Tesla will sue you for $50,000 if you try to resell your Cybertruck in the first year::Tesla may agree to buy the truck back at the original price minus “$0.25/mile driven” and any damages and repairs.

How does Monsanto avoid this?
They sell you seeds. You can grow things with those seeds, but you cant plant the grown plants’ seeds.
In that case, it’s a patented product that happens to reproduce itself as part of its normal operation.
In this case, it’s just shitty business behavior.
(To be clear, no, living organisms should not be patentable. But it’d be fucking hilarious if patented genes went feral.)
It’s even worse than that. You can buy seeds from the market place have no agreement with Monsanto but can’t plant those seeds.
