I will buy used cars that don’t auto-anything for me until I literally cannot find one anymore. Then I’ll buy a tune to remove the feature.

    This sounds like it'd be a good way to lose your license in the future, and maybe have a criminal court case if there was an significant accident that could have been prevented by said features you disabled.

      Only criminals need to modify their car.

      Now accept our integrated telemetry gathering that reports directly to LexisNexis so insurance companies can raise your rates [0].

      Surely you understand, think of the children!

        Nobody had said anything about telemetry, so far. The rest of us are talking about actual safety features.

        It’s so funny to me that people think just because a law is passed, that fixes problems.

        “This wasn’t illegal and now we made it illegal, we fixed the problem!”

        How’s that been working out?
