Halfway through he describes this as malicious compliance with the "right to repair" law. Apple and others are making a mockery of the law.

And your vehicle's features weren't lock behind a paywall in the pass because of enshitification. You know consumer rights and so on. If Rich people like you like paying then drive your rolls royce and Bentley, there are more poor people like us. Soon I'll have to pay to masterbate my fucking cock somehow for the cooperate overlords.

Why the attack? I'm against this. I might benefit from capitalism but i must not like it. And I do not. It's a shitty pyramid-scheme resulting in exactly shit like this. Many brands (that i know of...) do not put physically already existing hardware behind a paywall. Yet. But in the end, they all will do, because people don't care, or worse: don't see the implications it does and just accept.

As said, i now drive a pre-enshittification-car with no such shit. Might they still exist somehow in the future.
