    I assumed it’s not a option, so I took the suggestion to mean “physically disable” the device. Modern cars have a number of integrated computers and they rarely serve individual purposes, but there’s a good chance there’s an external antenna near/in a window. Granted, I don’t have any vehicles with cell service, so I could be wrong. I do own a drill though

    Just wrap your car in tinfoil. Bonus is that it stops the government from reading you mind while inside.

  Probably can’t do this unless you’ve already bought it.

    That’s the question, isn’t it?

    Can you actually buy a car in 2025?
