Thats a dangerous opinion. This technology can and will be abused ya moran. Tyranny always comes wrapped in a pretty 'for your health and saftey' bow. Haven't youbtards learned by now this has nothing to do with drunk driving or catching real bad guys. This will be used to control and restrict travel among people that aren't down with a totalitarian technocracy. The stupid really hurts....

Even worse, the measure goes on to require that the system be "open" to remote access by "authorized" third parties at any time. [link to hothardware.com (secure)] |

You do not need that new Whiz Bang Ching Mai Silverdingo Himalaya Edition. I don’t care how large the screen is. Buy yourself a fine old car and learn to love it. |

User ID: 53407402 United States 12/05/2021 09:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We need to keep our cars in good repair so we don't have to replace them with newer models. I am grateful that the lure of a new vehicle does not affect me. I am a practical person. Although when I purchased my new car 6 years ago I could have bought a far fancier model I instead chose a Chevy Spark. Manual transmission, manual door locks, 40 miles to the gallon. I am a small person so it fits me like a glove. It has blue tooth and a backup camera which is plenty of technology for me. But it came with Onstar. Not only did I never use it but they told me they could not disconnect it. Once a month I would get a report about my tire pressure, how much longer I could go before I needed an oil change etc. This is redundant. You get all this info every time you start your car right there on your dash. Seriously? I don't need to know this everyday from multiple sources. Finally last year I got the notice that it would be disconnected. Yeah! I don't want Alexa listening to me. I will not allow a smart meter on my house. If we purchase a "smart" appliance I have learned not to connect it to my phone, because, yes, I know my oven needs cleaning. I do not want my frig ordering milk. Good grief. All this spying is turning me into a Luddite. No good deed goes unpunished. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79565029 Laws could be passed, like at the California loading docks, to only allow vehicles of a certain age on the road. Therefore, vehicles only having computers and Wifi will be allowed on the road. All others could be ticketed and/or impounded... |
