MODERATORS
while we do need competition and variety on the market, electronics with Chinese origin raise serious concerns though. given China's present political trajectory it's not too far fetched to assume that vehicles will have remote backdoors that could be used for remote control of a vehicle. So unless those are "dumb" vehicles (which is highly unlikely) this is unlikely to be a good thing in a long run
Apple phones are made in China as are most laptops, servers and pretty much most electronics we use.
I just read that Ford is trying to patent a technology to report speeding directly to the police.
I don't like the Chinese Government but it's not like all North American companies are altruistic.
This Ford patent made me wonder. After looking it up, Ford stated that this technology would be for Ford police cars, not regular Ford cars.

Thanks for that. Doesn't sound too bad when they put it this way.
