I have a hunch that soon businesses will spring up to ‘cut the cord’ from one’s car to the Internet. Of course, once you need a data-link to start the engine (or whatever they force on us), then that won’t be an option.

I sure hope so! Over the last few years, I’ve had plenty of discussions with car sales folks about the surveillance systems in their cars.... and my answer has always been “nope... until you tear out the surveillance systems, I’m going to keep driving my pre-2007 vehicles.”

I want the same hack that I put into my Chev truck... a plug in piece under the steering column that disables the AFM (active fuel management) system that kept flipping the engine from 8 to 4 cylinders. Plug it in and the AFM is disabled and now I get better gas mileage and less oil consumption.... I want the plug and play ASS (active surveillance system) disabler!
