commanderChinese Cars Get Cheaper And Better, So U.S. Automakers Want Them Banned Even If They're Made Here | Carscoops
Pat_RiotThe pretense for all this is that we can’t have Chinese cars in the US because they’re all connected devices which China could be monitoring or manipulating. Obviously the only thing they actually care about is avoiding competition.
Personally, I’d find it hilarious if the result of all this was that a couple of Chinese companies released some decent quality, budget friendly EVs with no connected features. It’s the kind of vehicle that a lot of people want but that the big American auto companies aren’t interested in making.
At this point, I think I’d trust China with my data before any US company.
The US companies have already proven to be untrustworthy, willing to actively assist fascism, etc. at the expense of anyone and everything.
At least China isn’t going to give my info to ICE.
Definitely yes, everything in America is far beyond repair I don’t believe that China is the answer ether. Their are a lot of cool shiny things you see in China, but there’s just as much bad and horrific things going on there too as well. That being said I wouldn’t mind being able to purchase one of these Chinese EVs They actually look cool well priced and fun.
teftNo, the chinese will just feed the data into their own ai programs. I imagine with a fleet of cameras with gps rolling around they could do some really good mapping and machine vision training.
None of these governments are trustworthy and neither are the companies.
Services like Google Maps are already available worldwide with street view level images. And China has plenty of their own roads to handle vision training.
I gave my data to a turtle and it just swam away.
Exactly. The goal today is to be spied on only by those too far from me to care what I’m doing or saying.
and try to force people to buy thier overpriced slop.
