Louis Rossmann made a video on it, and something that came to mind while I was watching it was that while regulation can in fact be abused, I think some regulation has to be in place because a company that can charge whatever it wants for a car doing this just for the sake of control is awful. Do we really own the things we buy, or do the corporations?
I know in the EU, they have a lot more laws/regulations about warranties and other R2R shit, I just want to be able to fix the shit I own by myself without the company hindering me from doing so because they want to treat me like a leasee while charging me purchase prices.
Edit: Starting in South Korea, but very concerned that it could be brought here considering horse armor started the gaming industry’s bullshit.
Unfortunately, I think you underestimate just how much power companies like this have over regulations like that…
I hope you’re right, but I wouldn’t… Rely on that. At least going forward into this “brave new world” they are building…
Much like the aviation industry, these companies are as “powerful” (and certainly insidious) as many governments, and they know that, too…
