On the one hand I understand your argument. IMO it's a strange time to live in. You own the car, but not the ability to use it to its full capacity. On top of that, from my understanding, the software is owned by Tesla, so you couldn't mod it even if you wanted to (legally). That's a fundamental problem we've been having for a long time, then - you own the device, they own what you can do with it. It's the very same issue a lot of us have fought tooth and nail for, for the last decade and a half. Edit: someone replied - then deleted - that effecitvely this is a free market issue. I agree with that, and I by no means think that government needs to get invloved. Still, as a consumer of such devices/cars, I still feel uneasy (to say the least) about this scheme/business practices. It's "lame" for the reasons I outlined.
