[Dormant] Electric Vehicles

Not really on a deeper level. The systems underpinning all present vehicles are all proprietary garbage. It has been that way since around 2013 when cars started having modems and acting as data mining stalkerware that steals your digital person for manipulation and exploitation.

There were already many schemes present where digital theft was already an issue, but after the acceptance of stalkerware as standard, you've completely lost true ownership of any vehicle. The worst offenders are ALL electric vehicles, but any vehicle in the last 10 years is completely worthless second hand. This shift made the poor of society far more impoverished in the long term and creates a massive barrier in wealth disparity that will become far clearer to see in the next 10 years.

I painted cars for these kinds of general used car lots in the aughties. I even dabbled in buying for dealers at wholesale auctions. I can see the market clearly when I see what these kinds of dealers carry right now. It clearly looks like the world is sinking into something like the Cuban embargo where dealers are doing anything they can to acquire and resell the last age of ownable models that can be found at dying auction houses. It is the end of ownership. That means the end of autonomy. This is not just an EV problem, but it is an E problem. And it absolutely is a soft coup against democracy.
