Does that mean we can finally rip out all the privacy violating software and hardware?

[–] Schlemmy@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 week ago (3 children)

No they just want their own privacy violating software

Ah, yuck.

Wish any company would build electric vehicles without that in.

Privacy costs money. There are companies that retrofit gas cars into electric ones without making them into trackers on wheels. You can also buy EV kits and do it on your own.
