@mcfly@milliways.social Also, I usually gets cars when they are at least 5 to 8 years old and take them to third party mechanics, so I don't have a warranty and I don't get software updates from the dealer and from a software point of view my car is basically unsupported at that point anyway. How much functionality are they going to change anyway? They probably aren't going to keep improving anything important over a decade, unless they can charge me for it like drift mode or something.

@mcfly@milliways.social Sure, security updates are great, but so is running a car offline so that it can't be remotely unlocked or started by a hacker who gets into the company's cloud infrastructure, or just pays an employee like happens now with mobile company sim jacking.
