I'm waiting for it... hopefully when it does arrive it doesn't have all the touchscreen and autonomous/surveillance b.s. that seems to have become prevalent in EVs.
- elihu 7y agoMazda has said that they've decided not to have touchscreens in any of their cars going forward. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20200335 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20200335 I don't know what their stance is on built-in surveillance technology.
- cptskippy 7y agoI think surveillance either via passive black box logging or active cellular reporting is the new normal going forward. From a liability perspective it's a no brainier for companies. It also affords them a lot of valuable data from an actuarial perspective with regards to supply chain, warranty, and maintenance. For the consumer the benefits are negligible, especially when that information is held private to the manufacturer.
