The danger of modern 'connected cars' - mostly EV's but basically any car built in the last 5 to 10 yrs particularly
This applies equally to all modern tech-infected connected cars that are basically IoT appliances linked to one (or more) 'motherships' under control of sophisticated state actors, deep state departments, and business interests that want to control every aspect of your daily life more and more... Don't say you've not been warned...
@ArishMell Fuel isn't being rationed, but increasingly the insurance companies, government agencies, and third parties (plus malicious actors) are looking at ways to manipulate/control our use of motor vehicles more and more. Telematics and almost permanent network connectivity of almost all modern cars are the fundamentals.
It'll eventually be linked into social credit score systems, etc. as well.
@zonavar68 I worry far more about the malicious actors and insurers than the government; but we also have sizeable administrative differences between our respective countries.
The biggest perhaps being that the UK has no social credit score system. Social-welfare benefits are funded from general taxes including those raised on fuels and vehicles, but otherwise totally separate from anything else.
