The only way to fight this practice is to make it financially unviable. Simply don’t buy their cars (new or used). Advocate for that response widely and loudly. The people here actually have quite a lot of reach. We are the cutting edge of technology. We get to define the future. We get to decide if this is ok. It is NOT ok. Don’t start an arms race of hacking back. Start a boycott. They’ve broken the social contract by selling us a thing and then charging rent to use it. You break the social contract you get cast out. Don’t ever buy a BMW again. I would say “until they roll back this idiocy.” But this one needs to hurt. BMW is on my permanent blacklist ( I was a bmw fan for the last two decades, I’ve bought my last one) If we don’t nip this now it’ll be the standard in ten years. That’s not the future any of us want.
