They are worthless. You can't own them because of all the criminal proprietary crap. The cars are unserviceable. You don't see anything newer popping up at general used car lots because the junk is simply untenable. No one can fix them. There is no second hand market in this neo feudal digital dystopia. Buying proprietary crap like this has consequences; it means you don't actually own anything; it means you can't offload it. You paid all that money to burn every penny all by yourself. Trading it in is a monopolistic dream land where you're forced to sell it back to the true owner for peanuts, bent over, and take it again for a bigger gouge. You've sold autonomy, ownership, citizenship, and ultimately democracy, and you paid for the privilege... to subscribe to the scam of a highway robber. Your only vote is in the purchase. You can only fix yourself, not everyone else, but you alone in the paradigm are either part of the problem or part of the solution.
Jesus dude go outside, take a deep breath, relax a little
