Wrong. They voted to try require (by law) that each newly sold car come with a telematics system installed. That's the device that tracks everything you do.
A very successful campaign was run to obfuscate this as a right to repair bill. There were commercial s for both sides, but at the end of the day people couldn't be bothered to read the fucking bill.
You lot are just as dumb. Or did the phrases "wirelessly transmit" & "remote server" not make it into your tiny skulls?

So buy a 20 or 30 year old car that didn't get snagged by the Cash for Clunkers for a few hundred bucks, spend a grand or two bringing it up to snuff and spend the other thousands on your family or whatever.
