And then they integrate the systems with proprietary cross checking so that you can’t swap out or disconnect components, doing so will throw a code that will prevent cars from passing inspection on the CAN bus or cause a no-start. Why? Because they’ll put that shit in the contract when you buy.

Just like the outrage over car features needing subscriptions to activate, people will bitch and complain, then they buy the car anyway.
