I guess I’ll never have a new car.

I had to buy a car this year and they didn't even disclose it had this new "technology"...

Congress can’t stop insider trading. The Pentagon can’t pass an audit. The border databases get hacked constantly.

But don’t worry: by 2027 your car will reportedly be monitoring your eyes and behavior “for safety.”

Every surveillance state in history eventually discovered the magic word was protection.

Makes me want to pick my nose, fart, and anything else I can think of.

They don’t want to stop insider trading or pass an audit or not get strategically hacked but they sure want the eye of sauron watching the ants and bees….

Go back to when Barry Davis (aka 'Obama') was 'POTUS'........

Do you recall the 'CASH FOR CLUNKERS' program??

THIS was to get REAL CARS/TRUCKS OFF of the roads/out of circulation.

When I say, 'REAL' cars/trucks. I am referring to those that have NO 'computer chips' in them.

NO MATTER what 'IT' is.......cars/trucks, TV's, washer/dryers, fridges, air conditioners, and so on.......

if you STILL own things PRE-computer chips.......KEEP THEM and LEARN how to FIX these things!

If 'it' has computer chips in them......first of all, they are CRAP ("THEY DON'T BUILD 'EM LIKE THEY USED TO!"), and second.......'THEY' can TRACK you.

This is our government at work. Our government hates us, has no respect for us, wants to control us.

Hey Maddie,really sorry to hear about theft and I pray you get a resolution ASAP.

Thank you for highlighting this, times are scary with so many unknowns and unanswered questions, as well as the fact that government overreach is growing.

If I was going to buy a car, I'd be arming myself with some auto-electric knowledge so I can make sure I remove/shut down the AI system - or paying 'a guy' to do the job.

I just want a car that drives, not all this crazy technology fitted in.

Thanks for all you do!

What are your thoughts?

It’s a complete violation of the right to privacy (protected by the 4th Amendment). The legislation must be challenged in court and by all other forms of protest.

Just bought electric scooters AND I'll NEVER by a new car again as long as I live...

One would think mechanics that know "older" cars/vehicles willl find a niche in this field of repair...

Nancy Parker's avatar

Does your car demand to "see your eyes"? A creator on Instagram reported from a rental in Germany that had this that it had prevented her from accelerating because it couldn't see her eyes. This could easily cause an accident when merging onto a freeway. And what if the driver wears sunglasses??

The 80s hit program “Knight Rider” with David Hasselhoff is now reality except the cars are nefarious weapons of the Cyber Tyrannical Government.

Hmm…I’ll have to check this one out. Thanks Bobby!

I’ve said it for decades . . . ‘bringing new and heinous import to the ubiquitous phrase, “an open society.” ‘

2006 Honda CR-V. It doesn't even have a screen in it. I can't have a TV going in my car while I drive. I have ADHD.
