Either way, it is a good idea. Prevents subscription modeled features.

  No it doesn't. How would it?

    Features can't be disabled OTA for non-payment.

      But that's not a software update, so my understanding is that it is still allowed.

        Depends on what an update is legally speaking. If there is a security vuln due to a config issue and an update fixes it, is it a software update?

      Just do like toyota, have the car call home for subscription status and disable if the network etc is down [1]. [1] https://www.thedrive.com/news/43329/toyota-made-its-key-fob-remote-start-into-a-subscription-service https://www.thedrive.com/news/43329/toyota-made-its-key-fob-...
