  Monetise or propagandise?

  Both. It’s probably both.

  Less safe? What features do you need that, say, a 2015 model can’t have?

  An ICE that is still on the go is more environmentally friendly than manufacturing an EV from new… A new EV versus a new ICE, yeah fair enough. But replacing a perfectly functional ICE vehicle with a new EV for environmental reasons is just marketing, consumerism, and trend following.

  To stop bullshit spying of every part of a vehicle, to stop bullshit waste of perfectly functional vehicles, buy used.

  Obviously, fuck cars, use public transport if you can, but that’s unfeasible for most, so buy used!

  Especially if you can get your hands on something like a 1.0l with a giant turbo strapped to the side. They’re pretty common in Europe, I don’t know about America.

  Then don’t buy anything.

  If you want to stop shit behaviour you need to provide consequences.

  Buy a used car instead, there’s plenty of them.

  When the new car market falls apart these manufacturers will change their ways.

  But because people are unwilling to part with even the tiniest bit of convenience, prestige, whatever the fuck it is, I wish I knew, then the bad behaviour is encouraged and then you’re left in a situation where the market sees there’s no consequences for adding this shit to their products and they all do it.

  Then everybody suffers.
