    Clankers shouldn’t be allowed to drive at all, much less mandated. I miss when cars were more “dangerous” but cheaper, simpler, and more efficient. My 1994 Toyota pickup will still be running long after the last of these rolling smartphones are bricked by a lack of updates or Certified Service Components. We’ve been through this already on heavy equipment, I’m mad about having to hack tractors and mad people would fall for safety as an excuse to complicate basic tech we rely on and increase dependence on corporations for service
