I'm not even outraged by this stuff any more. If you're ok with subscription models it's your own fault.

It is outrageous because if a sufficient number of people accept this bullshit, it becomes a viable and profitable business model and every provider moves into it. Basically people like me who run away from subscriptions like the devil end up without a choice.

Exactly. I'm not okay with my car spying on me, but enough people don't know or don't care that I no longer have that option.

I think that you, me and zoidberg from the previous reply should go into business together making retrofit steering wheel airbags for older cars.
