Comment on The Feds' Vehicle 'Kill Switch' Mandate Is a Gross (and Dangerous) Violation of Privacy

I hope they DO mandate a vehicle kill switch, and I hope anyone who argues against it is the first killed by people disabling these on their cars. Humans are absolute monsters behind the wheel, and can't be trusted to follow the rules of the road at all. I'm all for this. I'm parading around on this issue, I'm supporting it, I love it, and I want to see it happen as soon as possible.

Don't like it? You can stick up your fanny along with your hateful responses. The instrument has yet to be invented that could begin to measure the indifference I feel toward your argumentative responses.

Ban freedom. Ban independence. Put all faith in your increasingly hostile government.

You think us uncaring. We think you a fool.

So from another comment:

I could also picture this leading to so many different unsafe situations. Leaving a bad area of town at night after a show? Great, the system kicks in and disables your car leaving you stranded and at risk of robbery or kidnapping or assault whether you stay with your car or try to seek another ride. Driving home to a rural area in freezing weather with no cell service? Well, the system thinks you’re impaired so it disabled your car, leaving you at risk of hypothermia, sorry. Stressed because you’re late to a job interview? Sorry, the system determined you are driving in safely and disabled your car, so guess you won’t make it. It’s solidly dystopian. !squiblet
