In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?

I already see GH issues like: "breaks stop working when going above 200mph."

I will do you one better: open source public transport

We should heavily regulate official options.
4 0 ReplyCars separate core functionality from the infotainment system. I’d fully expect foss infotainment to be significantly higher quality.
2 0 ReplyCars often don't now, rendering you unable to start/open them.
Also, define "higher quality". More user-centric, less obtrusive and "just works"? Yes, certainly better in that regard.
