  • Ooooh, I love that idea. That would be the perfect play, and the best part is that everyone (except for the people being exploitative shits) would benefit. Personally, I’d love it if Canada started jailbreaking cars, because then I’d be okay with getting an EV. I want a (used) BEV, but I don’t want all of the spyware bullshit that new cars come with. I’d be overjoyed if I could spend $500-1000 to permanently enable all subscription features and rip out all of the data collection. I have never gone to a dealership for servicing (better to support independent local mechanics), so I wouldn’t give a fuck about losing any sort of warranty. Bonus points if the jailbreak is FLOSS.

    Here’s to hoping some Canadian parliamentarian reads that article and agrees.
