Selling information about your driving habits to your insurance company without telling you is another opportunity too, too tempting to ignore. Make sure you know how disable data sharing if you buy a new car. Because now, even in automobiles, you are the "product" (i.e., sucker).

We need one car company to ditch the big screens and use physical buttons as a feature. Brag about it. They would clean up and influence the rest of the industry. I am dreading the next time I have to shop for a car.

Vertical integration

I already avoid gas stations that have ads at the pump. I would not purchase a new car over this as well.

“””glitch””” When will the tech bros stop unironically ripping off science fiction dystopias?

I will legit tape cardboard over my car display if they try this tomfoolery

Aiming to be the next Cybertruck.

GTFO!

Sure, crash and blow up for a couple of bucks...

Talk about lawsuits from distracted drivers. Hopefully, it doesn’t link to your phone and build an algorithm off your phone surfing. Talk about all the uncomfortable car rides when ads for gambling, porn and dating websites comes up. Lord take the wheel 😂😂😂

I know a guy who can yank them out in a few minutes.

Please don’t use their “glitch” framing unless they can explain it. It was very obviously a pilot test unless proven otherwise.

Literally everything is getting worse.

They make more money selling your data. And they don't give you a share. And to get out of being tracked all the time. You will have to pay twice as much for it.I love technology. But they are fuckin abusing it.

I will shoot my car, I don't care. No ads.

Gee, how could anything possibly go wrong with this bright idea? 🙄

Yet another reminder that books don't interrupt your life with ads.

Put ads on my property—pay me for it.

Burn them to the ground. We as a people have to stop accepting this enshitification of our lives peacefully. We have 12 guns to every one person in this country. Advertisers should be terrified of constantly encroaching on every aspect of our lives.

A feature flag turned on too soon by mistake = a "glitch"

Let me guess. You will have to upgrade to Premium to turn off ads? I would not buy any automobile that had ads

I actually profiled the firm responsible for this last year: theservingtimes.beehiiv.com/p/vehiculara...

I will buy a boombox with a CD player and buckle it into the front seat of my car before I listen to one single ad I stg

NO. Just.. no

If automakers are throwing up advertising on the console, surely they're subsidizing the cost of the vehicle, right? RIGHT?!

If only we had a bureau to protect consumers…

Something, something "Black Mirror"

I’ve been personally boycotting any company that advertises in unnecessary places in my life. It’s actually really freeing.

Ha, jeep for the independent jackass in ya

My Dodge has the option to turn the screen OFF

Kinda sucky to have that blockbuster coupon for a free VHS rental and not be able to use it.

They can program them in at the factory.

That seems... safe. /s

Great, even more distracted drivers.

Awful. Its bad enough I have to see ads at the gas pump.

🤣

Cool watch me never buy a new car ever the fuck again.

I wonder what the ads were for. Judging by the kind of people I see driving new jeeps i'd assume they were for box wine, Ryobi power tools, and better help.

*get less of them

This is far more eloquent than what I had in mind.

One more reason I'll never buy a vehicle with a screen.
