What we need to do is remember certain things, one being that we can fight this shit if we stop fighting each other and fight the overbearing government instead. Our voices being loud enough and us making enough fuss, even threatening to have certain members removed from their positions (which we can legally try and do), we could make a difference by fighting back (again I must state legally, do so legally).

The other issue here, that everyone seems to ignore, is the strange new idea that it is acceptable to change the terms and conditions of a contract, after the acceptance of that contract. We're hit with it over and over on phones, computers, software etc, and wrongly, we just accept it.

And because often enough nowadays, disagreeing to the updated terms & conditions means you can no longer use the product as a whole, rather than continue using the product without that service (most recent example is the update TOS for Roku TVs). At the very least they keep nagging you about accepting the new TOS every time you start the device, but often times they actually hold YOUR entire device hostage ober you not agreeing with new TOS for a service that the product can use! As soon as the tiniest, most insignificant service is integrated into a product, the manufacturer just treats the whole product as a service. That's how they're abolishing our ability to own the products we buy and they didn't even need to -bribe- lobby the government to make it legal, cause the government doesn't even understand how existing laws apply to this practice!

However, he was shocked to find out that the yearly registration of his fully electric vehicle was over $1700.00 because being electric he does not pay Road Use and Gasoline Taxes. So you get to pay what the government considers your share of the taxes and adds it to your registration fee.

It had nothing to do with the environment. The end date they used on the vehicles they wanted to keep was exactly the date that started control of vehicles. Granted they didn't have as much control as they do now but they could still shutoff your vehicle or pull the computer and see how much you have driven, when and how fast. Now they can shut your car down anywhere, lock or unlock, and turn all power off. You have zero control on any computer controlled car. This is a big reason for the electric car push. You will be limited where you can go because you won't be able to charge your vehicle if you get out past a certain point. This is why I still have a non computer controlled vehicle.

I recently had solar installed at home. I was going to buy the Tesla battery when the salesman proudly told me about their safety feature "it's monitored from Australia so they can turn it off remotely if there's a safety issue". Huh, what? They can turn off my solar whenever they choose without my permission? Er, yes... Needless to say, I went with another battery, that was smaller for similar money, but couldn't be remotely turned off. I wonder how many solar owners realise their self sufficient solar system can be turned off whenever the government chooses.

Geofencing refers to setting up virtual boundaries or "fences" around specific geographic areas. When a user enters or exits the predefined geographic area, they can trigger certain actions such as receiving notifications, ads, or other location-based services. For example, retailers may use geofencing to target shoppers who enter their store's vicinity with special offers or discounts, encouraging them to make a purchase. It got nothing to do with preventing your car driving in certain areas, it's purely a marketing tool.

Honestly, this has existed for years in the rental car market (to stop people driving cars that they failed to keep up to date on the payments for; I've heard of it more in America than the UK), but it was done via an add-on board rather than being built into the car itself. The geofencing / geotiming capabilities are most likely only going to be used by insurance companies (e.g. for geofenced/geotimed insurance policies) or by the courts in an ASBO-style system (for problematic drivers who still need to be able to drive, i.e. teenagers who drag race on residential streets at night), something they can already do via the add-on boards. While some people do discuss the "no-car days", it's generally so unpopular with the populace that no-one would actually try to implement it. Soft measures (such as congestion charges, ULEZ etc.) do a much better job while being more palatable (rather than being told you can't drive your car, you just have to pay an extra charge which discourages you from doing so). The inclusion of these capabilities isn't pleasant, but it's no worse than what's already available on the market. As for the statement of cars being fully autonomous, but 'not yet switched on', the lack of detail there is a bit misleading. The cars have the sensors and actuators to drive themselves (just look at the auto-parking features), but the software isn't ready for it and so they can't 'switch it on'. Once the software catches up, they're not just going to upgrade older models for free, they'll make you buy the new model for the self-driving capabilities.

And that’s what I love my 09 Volvo. Parking sensors, CC, keyless entry, lovely powerful engine, but NO center screen or SOS button.

And people still don't believe there's an agenda to either get us out of our cars or limit where we can go or what we can do. I had my service on a 22 VW end of Feb, I was told over the phone when booking that there was a software update available for install, which I politely declined, especially after I asked for a changelog list for the update, which she was unable to provide. As far as I can tell VW hasn't implemented any geo related capabilities, yet, but I'm not interested in any software updates knowing what I knew about EU black box event data recorder plans before buying (EU EDR laws came into effect from summer 2022), and that dealerships can't tell me what's in software updates.

Listen to the video, this is NOT just on milkfloats. Proper cars can just as easily be shut down.

Geo-fencing isn't just for trolleys at the market. It's the same tech used for ankle monitors used to keep track of criminals. That's what our governments think of us.

I checked my t&cs, geofence, speed alert, time fencing, valet alert, they are all there and they alert you in the app if the driver exceeds the boundaries you set. Great for teenage drivers. No mention of law. I suspect a little bit of sensationalism going on here. Also I can delete the app and rescind the contract.

This has been a thing for ages. Any car with wireless ECU capability (which is every car for the past 15 or so years) is capable of the same, they just base it off of known position and milage done according to the ECU. They don't need GPS based geofencing. There was even a leak maybe 8 years ago from the NSA ( I wish I could remember the name, like all big names it got one of those silly names) talking about using wireless ECU functionality as an assassination tool by causing stuck throttles and brake failure via the ECU. The leak was from around the same time as all of those toyotas had stuck throttle incidents in the news, which obviously caused people to speculate.

Battery capacity will reduce over time, with use and charging. Reduction in battery capacity will affect the performance of the vehicle, including the range achievable, and may impact resale value. New car performance figures (including battery capacity and range) may be provided for the purposes of comparison between vehicles. You should not rely on new car performance figures (including battery capacity and range), in relation to used vehicles with older batteries, as they will not reflect used vehicle performance in the real world.

They have to do that to stop the idiots from suing them over range dropping off over time. Believe me audi isn't wanting you to not buy EVs after they just spent millions developing them 🤦

@@MegaNayton I realise that but it goes to show how crap these things are , my son's Tesla promised 320 mile range , real world about 180, even less if high speed motorway work involved. £67k new ,two years on ,£25-£27k for 4500 miles. The future my arse..... I was in the industry for 7 years , nothing environmentally friendly about any EV with current technology batteries - nothing !

I liked the top gear episode were they brought second hand cars and put them the on a dyno so see how they compared to manufacturer specs. Everything wears out.

Teslas were fully self driving equipped 5 years ago, just not activated. They did a few years of downloading every bit of driving and cornering speed etc before they ever switched it on. I'm sure modern cars have had a load of this for ages. Of course the clue is they want us using ever newer and newer technology. Saving cars that already work is not what they want.

Modern cars do not have autonomous driving capability; most have driving assist technology but what is being discussed in this video is telematics, nothing to do with autonomous driving technology.

I am developing a healthy aversion to technology these days - growing up my dad was always telling me the computerized "advancements" were just more things that could and would break.

All my cars are older than me. And I like it that way. Amazing story
