I don't want it, to the degree I carefully researched a car that will outlast this uncertain period of insecure, buggy, and down right stupid "app-ification of a car". And thanks to covid and working from home, I put less than 5K miles on my car last year.
It really boils down to public perception of "software" is not very resilient, it appears down right fragile and prone to hacking. Now, why on earth would one want such a "thing" to be in control of a vehicle carrying my family, my most precious assets? And on top of that, it will be marketing things I don't want and I don't want my family being continually barraged by marketing... all this "car software" appears to be is yet another vector for advertising, and the surveillance capitalism they rely upon.
- giuliomagnifico 5y agoYour point of view is correct but (unfortunately) I think that most of people don't want it simply because they are too lazy to understand how it work and use/configure it every time they're entered in the car. Infact most of people don't make upgrades for the same reasons, for that, car brands are using OTA upgrades
