Thanks. I'd pay more for an EV that doesn't build in any tech at all outside of the primary function of the car.
We need to draw a line between "essential auto technology" and the internet-connected convenience tech. I would love an open source project like GrapheneOS for autos. Or even just a tablet I can connect to the power and the stereo/mic for any sort of internet connected functionality (GPS, music, etc). Either way I want my open source OS to manage the modem firmware as I have no trust in these companies.
EV’s tend to have the most “techie” features so that’s going to be tough unfortunately and messing with your car’s firmware/software could be potentially very, very dangerous tbh
Very true, but I can still dream haha
In an ideal scenario the EV driving tech could run locally with no network connection, and I can plug in something open / 3rd party for the network connected techie features
I’d pre-order it today lol
