- kyriakos 3y agoIts as if the reasoning behind it was "when the popup comes up, stop, switch to parking mode so you can read the new terms of service, then continue your trip". The first time I got it a month ago I just left it on screen till I reached my destination and went through the terms. I got another update yesterday, i just dismissed it, will see it again tomorrow for sure.
- somehnguy 3y agoThat scenario is so comically dystopian. Nobody cares about the terms because they can't do anything about them anyway, so just leave people alone.. Also, stop changing the terms so much.
- freedomben 3y agoMy guess is it's all about liability, and possibly regulation. Nowadays our culture demands that products force people to be safe, rather than expecting people to choose to be safe and accepting the consequences if they mess up. I wish I could laugh at the idiocy, but it's too personal and enfuriating to me to be funny. The enraging thing for me is that it makes my car unusable for the passenger even though that person isn't even driving!!! A human is so much better at making that decision at drive-time than the dumb software. At least use the damn airbag sensor in the seat, and if there's a passenger, let them use the controls!!!
