I would agree it should be regulated, along with quite a few other things around controls.

But I seriously wonder if any of the legacy auto makers would do this. I feel like they’re all way too conservative to do something this radical.



Oh please like legacy automakers are resistant to implenting consumer hostile features to increase their revenues.

There’s a difference between stupid money grubbing stuff (which they’ve all been looking at) and risking safety by hiding safety critical systems.

I was referring to the later.


I like how pretty much every post here contains multiple people asking for new regulations. Thank god the HN crowd is not in charge of legislation because soon everything would be illegal.


Sorry but I have a pretty strong desire for regulations on things that could easily be safety critical.

We have a lot of history in the US showing that’s basically the only way to get/keep safety.
