Is there anything I can do besides refuse to buy a car that collects telemetry? Are there such cars still being manufactured?

    Most sensible cars have modules that fail independently. I pulled the modem out of my 2018 k2 and it still works just fine.

    With newer, esp electric vehicles, there is an absolutely clear trend of non-repairability; failure rather than resiliency. Don’t expect the ability to do this forever.

    I guess the only option nowadays is to buy an old used car.

    Soon some of us will be back to using typewriters.
