I largely welcome restricting massproduced mobile surveillance machines made by a chinese hq'd company. Don't misunderstand me I hate teslas too for this, but we don't need more of this shit.

We are not restricting the surveillance, just making it more expensive.

What we need is forced inspections of the source code and other ways to actually mitigate the security risks.

Just making things more expensive does nothing to mitigate actual the risk.

Yeah I’m not buying any EV until I can get a bare bones model that can install some stripped down open source OS.
