We need to scrap the entire US government and start over.
“I dont want a chinese car because it would just spy on me”
It’s 1984 and no one cares
Looks like I’ll need to start stockpiling old camrys and corollas in addition to hard drives, routers, motherboards, ram, dumb TVs, flip phones/whatever else they’re taking away this year.
As it references the NTSA I think that this is a USA only issue.
You’d think more libertarian types would be more in favor of walkable cities, biking, and such.
Chinese EVs it is, nonIronically safer and more trustworthy than American products
So… ICE will know both your location and face every time you get in your car? Yeah, I’m sure this won’t result in a genocide. /s
I can’t wait to have to buy active countermeasures for this shit. /s
This is fucked. But aren’t “passenger vehicles” actually quite rare? I think most (environmental and safety) regulation is on passenger vehicles, which is why auto manufacturers try and sell so many trucks and SUVs since they don’t count as “passenger vehicles”. I could be wrong and this mandate is going to target all consumer vehicles.
Fuck all cars and our American car brained culture. But also fuck this legislation.
Bought a 2000 Honda Civic precisely because I don’t want to be spied upon.
Spank my ass cause everything else already does, so it makes my effort almost completely moot.
Lol pre 2027 cars will sell at a premium
Living in a capitalist hellscape is getting old.
