If any of the first 2 owners want to get rid of theirs’ cheaply, I’d be happy to take it and rip the batteries and drivetrain out for making cool cars EVs.
They'll get around this by painting a EULA on the windows: "By approaching close enough to read this you give us the right to do whatever we want with whatever data we can collect."
Just because you "agree" to a EULA doesn't necessarily mean its legally defensible. Its an avenue that a company can point to and say "look, we did our due diligence", but if effective safeguards are in place a good judge can throw it out the window.
By clicking this button, you signed over right to your asshole... take your pans off and lay down any resistance is violation of the EULA and we will use FBI to fuck you even harder!
There is a lot of laws around what a contract can do. you cannot have a contract for murder for example. EULA are the lowest form as the other party doesn't have a choice, particularly if the terms change after the sale. contact a lawyer for the current state, but last I checked they were not well tested, and gnerally considered breakable in court.
I mean, it could hurt the 1%. Car manufacturers gather a laughably huge amount of data. Everything from where you shop, to your genetic information, to who you’re sleeping with.
All it would take is a group of 99%’ers pooling money to buy the info of lawmakers, CEOs, etc… When it’s suddenly their info being sold, I bet they’ll be a lot more amenable to protections. Because when the lawmakers’ secret affairs start getting aired by their car, they’ll be quick to shut that shit down.
Hey maybe it was a long day for the car and it was tired OK? It happens, no need to broadcast this info ffs. I swear to God, I’m not surhuman, sometimes these thing happen
