I still own only cars from the '90s and 2000s because of this issue (along with stuff like telemetry spying on you, etc.). However, even if just driving old cars forever works for me, it's hardly a solution for society in general simply because there aren't enough old cars for everybody to have one, let alone all the other problems with it.

These companies are trying to destroy our property rights in order to engage in unethical and abusive rentiership. The correct solution is legislative, not just to ignore them and hope they'll stop!
