I love how the only people that were going to be exempted were peoples who's cars cellular modems already didn't work. How convenient.
I hope I can be buried in the cars I currently own. And if I have to buy a new one if it won't work with the cellular modem being pulled out I ain't buying it.
Nobody wants to update the firmware of their dishwasher! (or anything, really)
I'm sure one can think of "benefits" to this, but as this incident shows, the annoyance far, far outweighs any possible benefit.
This is really getting out of hand. "Right to repair" should include "right to dumb down".
