And on a final note, all of this is necessary for the deployment of technologies like "Self Driving Cars". And I know some will undoubtedly say it is unneeded.... And I just keep trying to figure out if they will still think that when an 85 year old senile driver or some drunk t-bones their kids and kills them.

So now the sky is falling?

It's a long way around to agree with me in the end lol.
The sky is not falling. It's called progress and compromise and EVERY culture and civilization goes through it. No one can freeze time. There will always be a sub group that will fight it, and that subgroup will die in time and be replaced by another fringe percentage of the population battling progress in he future. It all means nothing in the big scheme of things, but it makes for some entertaining posts.

Then there are those that believe ether was a good aesthetic when you had to have surgery...

In three posts you went from, "guy's it's all BS, nothing to worry about"

To, " they've had the ability to spy on you for years"

To, "this is progress, but simultaneously you're fringe for believing it"

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Yeah I've heard that a million times, and yet the definition of essential liberty is as ethereal as cigarette smoke. Is driving drunk an essential liberty? Should people with dementia be allowed t drive. There is a good middle ground but unfortunately folks on both edges of the debate will never admit there is.

In any case all are free to keep fighting their fight with slogans and memes. Let's see if any of this, including this thread, can stop the tide but I wouldn't bet on that.

Maybe it's your reading comprehension that is lacking. It's all good.

My previous post I was very explicit that the sky is NOT falling. And I don't agree with you or anyone else in this thread, in general I don't care much for uninformed opinions driven by feelings, slogans and memes. I actually I was just trying to give some reality based insight to anyone else reading this post that is interested in facts.

Yes, nothing says facts like, "my buddy in the CIA said"

Most people can't remember their high beams are on, and they think a coffee icon will get noticed.
Driving the Gladiator I don’t have this problem. Everybody thinks I have my high beams on all the time. Nothing but flashes allllll the way home. 🤪

Every single time the tin foil hat crowd comes out talking about how they'll never ever give up their 1966 points ignition Corvair because it can't be controlled I say the same thing...

They'll just shoot you.

The government is putting people in jail for touching slimy water that embarrasses them. They jailed people for having dinners, mowing their lawns, and going to church.

If you have the only car running up and down the road after they hit their little kill button... If all your apocalypse dreams come true, and you're just out there in your gasifier powered points ignition death machine like, whooo hooo can't stop me!

They'll just shoot you.
Who is they?

The only people telling you, "you have nothing to worry about," are the people you should be worried about. People suck. Get off my lawn.

Spoke to a buddy at the CIA (retired) that has the best answer yet. The "government" has had access to EVERYTHING you do and say for decades. it has MASSIVE amounts of data and capabilities on everyone in the country, including the ones that THINK they are off-grid.

So the issue is not what they have or what they can do, that ship has long ago sailed. It is WHY would they be interested in YOU? And the trick is NOT to do something that will get their eyeballs fixated on you.
Yup, they just have too much data to sort through. It's as if they need tons & tons more computing power to organize the info. I wonder how they could accomplish this? ;)

Shades of Red Barchetta in my future? Cool. Good thing Im not planning on ever getting rid of that e46.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to fire up the willing engine, drive like the wind and strain the limits of machine and man.

Or I'll just put the album on and sip my coffee.
