      We need cars that aren’t giant IoT boxes that keep phoning home. The vast majority of “smart” car systems shouldn’t need an Internet connection to function. But yes, I agree with your sentiment.

      Never gonna happen unless governments force them.

      What WILL happen is that more and more non-critical features will become pay to play. You’ll rent the air conditioner in your car.

      Installing your own software will become (or likely already is) illegal since if you’re u do that you could play without pay on the car that you paid for with your money.

      Corporations must be limited I’m what they can do, NOW. No more data monitoring and selling. No more ads pushed. No more pay to play. No more limiting what you can do with the products that you buy and own

      Someone could probably make a good amount of money charging like $50 to stick a nail through the cellular chip of new cars to disable that phone home shit.
