I don't think the car analogy works well in this case, as both the acts of manufacturing and driving the vehicle have numerous laws and regulations - making it more akin to a software license agreement than not.
- pekk 14y agoOnce I, as a consumer, have purchased a car, I do not care about the regulations on manufacturing. It is my car. I can repaint it. I can remove the logos. I can mess with the engine. Yes, there are emissions regs in many states. But these are not simply dictated by the vendor of the car, to make me keep buying the car, or paying extra each time I want to drive into a new state. There is at least some reasonable justification (if cell phones belched smoke, they'd be regulated the same way).
- yk 14y agoYes, but these are government laws, not a expression of the special interests of a private company.
