It will become a subscription business with EULA.
It should really replace this petrol powered junk but this is what ultimately happens with such suits in charge. Do you think people will choose better? How many Fairphones or Linux desktops have you seen in real life? They choose slavery.
Speaking of slavery, China does make better cars with great price. I just wonder how many gigabyte per month these cars send to China? So it's either future Mercedes car with Apple carOS coming with subscription or Chinese spycar. Make your choice.
Or choose community/cycle transport, something better fit to 2024.
That is definitely where the corporations are trying to push everyone, but that has nothing to do with electric powertrain cars and everything to do with capitalism powered enshittification.
I do know one person that uses their fairphone to access their self-hosted services on their raspberry pi and uses their Linux daily driver to make money and browse the web.
They also encourage people to reject surveillence capitalism, to do what they can for our ecosystem and to join the fediverse to help stop the slide into the new feudalism.
