> Why on earth would you expect something that you failed to pay for to keep working? I'd expect it to keep working because the airbag doesn't need a micro service in the cloud to function. Once the software is written, and the hardware delivered. The company can't lose more money then they're already out. The user may, or may not pay the full amount. If the airbag doesn't work, and the user needed it to work. There's 0% chance they'd pay you after that. But if they didn't pay you, and they used it, and it protected them. Some of them would pay the remaining owed. You can even ignore morality and ethics; simple game theory makes this idea stupid.
