And I'm sure no one ever abuses that by watching a movie while driving... As much as I generally don't love technology taking a paternalistic attitude toward restricting what happens on the infotainment system, I really don't think it's a good idea to offer a feature like that, unless it only functions when the car is stopped and not in gear.

Tv reception has been a near standard feature in Japanese car info infotainment systems for decades. The digital tv standard includes "wanseg" for mobile tv reception, using a low bandwidth/ low resolution side channel. Very common to walk past cars stopped at the lights and see tv showing everywhere. they dont turn it off when they start driving either ;-)

  Yeah and everybody here in the US has their phone mounted right in the middle of the windshield, blocking half their view, and it's usually playing tiktok or some stupid shit.
