Not to be that smug guy who drives old cars, but I can fairly safely gaurenteed my vehicles, from '84, '85, '93, '06, and '07 are not spying on me.
The problem with old cars is that, eventually, they will die, and all we'll have is the surveillance boxes, no alternative.
This is part of why it's so vital to keep the fight for surveillance-free vehicles, even if, for a brief moment, you are still able to avoid part of this monstrosity.
I've said this in other threads, but you are gonna see the value of old shitboxes skyrocket as they will be the last haven of privacy on the road.. Until they make it illegal to drive any vehicle that doesnt record you constantly via audio/video, require a breathalyzer to start, plus 2 blood samples, a piss sample, and a Semen sample/Cervical scraping before allowing you to turn the key and enter the roadway/
That's quite a lot to get a car running.
My bike is unregistered and essentially unregulated. I don't even need to follow actual roads. This grass field? Yeah can cross that. True freedom.
Government endorsed mastrubation? Sign me up!
No, it will be via cold, unpleasant, mechanical prostate electroshock.
I already said "sign me up", you don't have to sell me on it.
Some people might be into that...
Jesus would cover his eyes, if his hands didnt have holes in them.
